So can you do a 21" wheel not lose the width of the stock tire?
I want a 21" but do not want a skinny tire?
I would rather not do a low profile sidewall either if that is possible.
I thought you could buy some replacment brackets that move the fender?
I have an 08 RG and would like to get a bigger wheel up front some day but still like the look of the fat front. Anyone done this?

If you are running an avon like myself just keep an eye on the fender from now and again I heard the avon ballons more than the metzlier (sp). I had a little rub on the inside it justbarely touched my undercoating Im considering raising it a little more i already have the holes drilled so maybe a little more..
in this pic you can see the slight rub line so still contemplating to raise a bit more or not.

i have a 21 on my road king with a avon tire. i didnt have to enlarge the rear hole at all. i taped the 1/4 bolts and turned it around with no problems. i have about a 100 miles since the install now. puttin chrome legs on her this weekend, so i'll check it again.
