I like this fender....a lot. But that could mean I should probably upgrade rims first.$$$ And of course I am running new tires and rotors. Should probably stick with focusing on front suspension...which of course means getting some chromed lowers and rebuild kit.

I have a similar fender on my older bike make by Klockwerks. Pretty sure I paid a lot less than that price for it but has been quite a while. I don't remember the oil weight either so sorry but I did go with a much thinner profile tire which I think looks better but everyone has different taste. I am running a 19" wheel.

I'll be the naysayer and wonder how well it's going to paint around those tight cut outs, and say go for something a little more conservative. Simple tirehugging fenders are OK, but I don't think that one will age so well. I think the style will get old quick.

I’m not much for the big front wheels, but I think a 19” with lower profile tire would be the route I would go if funds grew on trees.
