Replacement wheels for a bagger?
I am starting the search to replace the rims (and rotors I suppose) on my '06 RK Custom.
Any tips on manufacturers? Or styles that look nice on a bagger?
Pictures would be helpful too

I put chrome spokes on mine. I like the traditional/old school look it gives the RK Custom. I got mine from HD, although since I bought it I have seen some other nice spoke wheels in catalogs and magazines. Pic is in my sig and gallery.

Hooray! Someone else doesn't like those stock wheels. I could not believe my eyes when the factory stuck you guys with those. I guess they got a deal from John Deere. Friend of mine took his off and had them chromed.....doh! There are lots of beautiful alternatives and why he did that........he's still wondering. Somebody offers the 9 spoke HD wheel in chrome at a very reasonable price.......they take the stock wheel, media blast the paint, grind the nubs off and chrome them......nice.
Good hunting!

2smooth,
Check out Arlen Ness's Evil Seven chrome wheels. That is what I am considering. Also, during the river run at Lauglin, saw these guys: www. cfrmotorcycles.com and they also have a vey cool chrome wheel.
Best,
DR

RE: Replacement wheels for a bagger?
To each his own. I think the stock wheels look fine and I would never have laced wheels with tubes again, although I do like several of the after market chrome wheels.
