Chrome Wheel question for my 08 Ultra

My 2008 Ultra came with the chrome profile laced wheel option. These wheels look good to me and have raised centers. When I'm looking at wheels in the HD parts catalog, my wheels are priced at $312 each. I've also seen wheels in the catalog listed as chrome laced wheels that are part of Original Equipment. They do not have raised centers and are priced at $410 each. Has anyone had any negative experiences with the chrome profile laced wheel with the raised centers (the less expensive ones) ?

Any positive comments will be welcome as well....thanks.

Just a guess here, but I think the difference is going to be that one of them is a tubeless wheel and one is not? Tubeless is ALWAYS better.

I'm thinking that your seeing a chrome laced wheel (Raised center) and a profile laced wheel (smooth from bead to bead) If it's a laced wheel (with spokes), it has a tube in it....
