I got all 3 wheels on my Trike from him. After about 30,000 miles they still are perfect. Great guy to deal with too. I had the advantage that I could drive to his shop. Spent some time with him. He really cares about doing a great job.

I too have a 18 Street Glide in Black Tempest and I just did what you are considering, I ordered the chrome 19 enforcer wheel as well as chrome lower legs and I’m picking up the polished rotors today. Whilly does awesome work and shipping is blazing fast. You can’t go wrong.

I haven't looked on the ***** Shiny site in a while. I'm not sure if he offers the 21" Reinforcer or not. Seems like the company that makes that wheel is in cahoots with Sport Chrome if my memory serves me correctly.

Anyone that tells you a 21 handles better than a 19 is patting his back for spending the extra money for the 21, the bike is set up for a 19, the 21 may handle fine, but it won't handle better.
