I think it is decent for a used set of wheels, rotors and tires. they are expensive new.

I like them. Not gonna get them but I like them. Where is the best place to learn about fitting a different set of rims? Not sure what sizes work with what. So I guess you can probably go bigger to a certain width, then larger diameter to a certain extent until it hits the fender? Then at what point rotors and.....?

well, I guess. I’m just trying to learn a little bit before I make some impulsive decision somewhere down the line. Just thought I would get others thoughts

Awesome pjones thanks!

so if I read that correctly one could put a wheel on the front up to 21” d without having clearance issues and upto 18 on the rear. Cool man, and then you can do several dimension of tires on whatever rim size

Stock front wheels with 16", 17", 18" and 19" rims are all pretty well the same overall diameter, as each uses a suitable low profile tyre, so they will all work with the stock fender and don't change geometry. They also all use 130mm wide tyres. 21" is larger in OD than those and may require changes.
