Question 2007 RKC Wheels
Thinking of replacing my factory wire wheels with aluminum tubeless wheels. Wonder what year model "takeoffs", besides 2007, would fit my 2007 Road King Classic?

As an example the 02-07 REAR Black 9 spoke "Wagon" wheels will fit
And `00-07 FRONT

Made for 3/4" rear axle
The bore through the center will not accept the 1" or 25/mm spacer

Does this look like a 1" bearing? Reason I ask is that I purchased a set of wagon wheels off ebay for my 07 RKC and I never thought to ask what year they were off of, because I assumed 2000-08 were the same except for the bearings.

I made the same assumption
You can put later / larger BEARINGS in the early wheels
It`s the SPACER that doesn`t fit "Multihdrdr" explained why

( I`d like to assume the casting is the same and the center could be bored to allow retrofit, BUT that`s pure conjecture )

08 was the Identical wheel with a change to 25mm bearings (and a bearing shim)
