2014 enforcer wheels on a 2012 street glide

Thanks for the help, forgot to mention I have no ABS on my SG, but did read a few comments stating that enforcers with ABS wheels will fit non ABS as long as bearing is swapped as you mentioned, thanks for the confirmation.
Is this #41455-08C what I would need for the swap? So far enforcer wheel, bearing kit, and brake discs are all I would need in front. Same applies for the rear? Stock brake calipers with 2014+ brake disc?
Rear bearing kit #41456-08C.

I recently put a set of chrome airstrike wheels on my 2008 SG. front wheel went on no problem, just had to change out the bearings. rear wheel was a bit more tricky. The rear wheel would not line up even after replacing the bearings. After much head scratching, it turns out the rear wheel required a bearing spacer to allow it to line up properly. So the 2nd question is, will my friends conversion require the spacer bearing or not?

I have a 2013 SG and will eventually like to upgrade to enforcers, really like them and cannot afford $$$ on aftermarket wheels.
With that said, I should note I am fairly new to the HD game but what is this bearing swap everyone mentions? Will I need a 2013 stock bearing to replace the 2014 enforcer bearing? What about the calipers? From the pics above I can see the 2014+ brake discs will be needed for the swap.

For example, if you find a nice low mile set of Enforcers with ABS bearings already installed and you know the bearings are in great shape, then there is no need to change to Non-ABS bearings to install on your 2013 (or any 2008 (Front Only) and 2009-2015 Touring (Front and Rear)) Non-ABS bike.
You would simply have someone with machining capabilities reduce the length (width) of your FRONT-LEFT and RIGHT-REAR Spacers by .117-.118 (3mm). That's the difference in length (width) between a 15mm std bearing and 18mm ABS bearing. All is good. I've done this several times.
Then whenever (or maybe never depending on how many miles you put on), you want/need to replace tires/bearings, install the Non-Abs bearings with 2 new original length spacers. Those spacers are inexpensive, $10.57 and $7.92 List price currently.
If find yourself in this situation and need the reduced length (width) spacers, I can help you with that. PM me if interested.

Lot of knowledgeable people here, one more reason why I like this forum. I will subscribe to this thread for future reference, just purchased the bike and only has 3,0xx miles so no need for the swap, will ride another season and hopefully by then the enforcers will be down on price. Nice looking rides you guys have as well! Thanks!!
