RE: 99 wheels on 85

The tires have 1500 miles on them with new bearings and seals installed at the same time. Wheels look alot better than mine also. The bearings are the same, just spacers are differerent, took to shop I use when I have to.

RE: 99 wheels on 85

not sure chop only 2 sets of axle bearings available. 3/4 and 1" to my knowledge however small it is the 1" axles are all the same from 2000 and up. 3/4 are the same 99 and down.
