Two schools of thought for you. 1. If you look at Hog Pro Big Fatty.. the SAME wheels that are made for them by Ride Wright... I've run them. 2. This go round I went with DNA Mammoth Spokes 18's front and rear with diamond cut. Picked them up on ebay for under $900.00 Zero issues and bout half the price of Ride Wrights. Do a search for them on flea bay and got mine out of California and love them.

I can tell you from first hand experience to stay as far away from DNA wheels as possible. I spent the last several months in agony dealing with their sorry ***'s. I went through two front wheels before finally having to put a tube in. The first one went completly flat on me after 200 or so miles and almost caused me to go down at 65 mph. After bickering with them and the shop I bought them from they sent me a second wheel about a week and a half later which I had mounted up only to find that it leaked too. The Aholes at DNA don't care about us as customers and they don't give a rats *** about quality products or customer service.This has been the worst customer service and product experience I've ever had to endure. Some may have gotten lucky with them, but after reading the numerous similar stories like mine after having problems myself,I wouldn't recomend them to my worst enemy. Heck, they didn't even compensate me totally for the tube and remount. Screw them! On the bright side, I have heard a lot of good about Ride Wrights. A-1 quality products that are really made in the USA. BTW DNA's wheels are not made in the USA as they state. I know this because I was told first hand by them that they were waiting on the container at port to clear before they could send part of my order. Good luck with your Ride Wrights

Oh, Here's my wheels and they do look good, but I'm having a hard time being confident in them after the rough start. I still would deal with anybody else other than DNA....Don't do it!
