Default 2005 Ultra Classic front wheel

Looking to replace the OEM stock 16in wheel with a 19in or 21in . Im thinking 19in since that will probably fit without changing the fender, and would prefer not sink $2k into a front wheel. Are there any OEM 19in or 21in wheels of another model that are a straight swap ?

Just about any later model front will work, you will have to either have the correct bearings installed in the wheel or get late model axle and spacers. Be aware of abs and non abs bearings
I have a 2013 front on my 2004
