Big Fatty

I called Hogpro to check out the Big Fatty wheels for my 07 Roadking and the sales guy said they reccomend using tubes. I wanted to get away from that.
Do they make a spoke wheel for tubeless tires?
What is the widestwheel and tire you can put on a Roadking?
Do 18" wheels affect the handling?
Thanks in advance for any input

Have a good friend that has the fatty setup and he says is different in the handling. I think you have to use a tube with spoke wheels.

RE: Big Fatty

AZ, I have the Big Fatty from Hog Pro on my Road Glide. They are TUBELESS and I am running 18's and love the way the ride on the Avon Venoms.

RE: Big Fatty

Badbagger,
Those wheels look great. What size width did you get for front and rear? And what size tires?

Thanks

RE: Big Fatty

Thanks... if my memory serves me width is stock with a 150 Avon Venom on the rear. Speak with Jerry. You CAN get tubeless. The wheels are made by Ride Wright Wheels and are the exact same wheel at their Fat Daddy 50 wheel.
