They mail your old rims back to you. They told me it's $50.00 but they threw that in the deal.

It's a bit late for me to Justify.

If I listened to my conscience, I'd never own a bike.

Thanks again, Guys!

How do they ride?

Looks great! I plan on changing this Winter. I am thinking 21/17 instead of 18 to keep the height down. What tires did you get? I have been looking at PMs, st chrome $2200 from my favorite HD dealer without tires and mounting.

I had that work done when I did the chrome lowers last year.
