Yes the speakers do face the rear wheel. And every1 with bag speakers that I know have them this way and the sound is unbelievable. When I'm all done 1 bag will still be usable and as far as touring I have a tour pack so I'm not sacraficing that much space and if I really need more space I can always put my other bags back on. Bucket there are a couple of different ways you can mount bag speakers but I find this way IMO the best sounding way. Speakers will be hidden so to speak facing the tire.
Best of luck on your project and post more pics as you go along!

Well I finished my speaker and saddlebag project yesterday. I drilled out my saddlebags (very time consuming), cut out spacers for speakers using MFD all there is to do now is mount amp and wire everything up. I actually bought a used set of bags for this project. When I'm done with these bags they will have a baddads 4" extension kit. Here are a few pics I will post more when the I'm done with the extensions.
What is the purpose of this ?? What do the spacers do/help ?? Thanks !

hey bro, glad to know you have outstanding sound now but just to let you know there is some dude on the internet (just punch in motorcycle audio-cause this was more than a year ago and i guess dementia is kicking in)that has a set up for speakers mounted into the lids so you don't compromise your luggage space-the speakers are flush mounted to the lids and are right in your face more than "TOWARDS YOUR REAR WHEEL!!!!" what the hell are you thinking bro-just kidding-i have a 100 watt set up on my road king classic engine guards which are suffice for the time being but i will find the need for more power soon enough-good luck with your project and the good news is your speakers are cocealed where is mine aren't
