Perhaps a 21" then, that seems to be the limit from what I've seen. Even that is too big IMO.
A factory 19" from a street glide doesn't look bad, but I'm really partial to the 18" Air Strike wheel I put on my FLHT. It has the right amount of sidewall IMO.

If you want something different, that is bolt on, and rides as good or better than stock, you might consider going with a Native Custom Baggers Pitbull kit (180/55/18 front).
I've been running this for over 3 years and love the way it rides and handles. I don't know what "travelling" means to you, but put 500-600 miles in a day on my bike a few times a summer. Shorter trips the rest of the year.

Thanks. I'm pretty happy with this latest version. I ran a 21" for about 7 years before this. Definitely rides and handles much better with the 18". It's a little slower turning in initially, but once leaned over it's absolutely planted to the road. Even brakes better with the much wider tire. I had a pic of my bike sitting next to a stock RG. You can really see a huge difference but I can't find that pic.
