Default AME 200 tire kit


Anyone running the AME 200 tire kit for the 04 - up sportsters?

http://www.chopper-kit-usa.com/fat_t..._sportster.htm

Just wonder how straightforward the install is. (I'm a do-it-yourselfer, but I prefer good directions if possible.)

I've got a 200 on my VTX and I'm so used to seeing it that I think that that is whata rear tire is supposed to look like. I think it looks even better on a sportster since the bike is narrower and makes the 200 look even wider.

Thanks! I've had a lot of fun morphing it into what I want - but I've kinda run out of things to do with it (from a customizing standpoint) since I've got it where I want it.

I always lusted after the engine in my friends 04 1200C with Screaming Eagle II exhaust (the potato potato idle, the deep sounding exhaust, the way the enginedances around in the frame at idlelike it is going to jump right out). Since I'm running out of projects on the VTX, it seems like the logical thing to do is get a 1200C and start all over! (still trying to explain that to the wife).

Seeing that AME kit was one of the things that really pushed me in this direction. (I've got a couple of other ideas rattling around in my brain, too) I not only like thewidth of the AME kit - but the 18" spoked rim is also a big attraction for me - I think the whole thing looks great all around. I just have to find a sportster this winter so I can get started.

Anybody know if this will fit on a 07 Nightster?
