Any experience with HogPro wheels?
I'm in the market for a 21/18 combo for my RGC. I am looking at Performance Machine and HogPro wheels. I know the PM stuff is quality, but it is also $$$$. I noticed there are some decent looking HogPro wheels they call "Saver Sets" that cost a lot less. I do remember when I was in the V-Rod community that some people were having issues with the rear bearings going bad prematurely. I don't want to deal with any of that crap with this bike.
Anyone have any experience with their wheels?

Just to clarify.
I read some thread on a v rod forum about bearings and hog pro but the wheels were Weld Wheels bought thru hog pro and hog pro provided new bearings to the owner even though it wasn't a hog pro wheel and really not their responsibility and the bearings were like 2 years old. Is this the same thing you're talking about?

I believe these guys were running their "Le Mans" wheels.
I will say that I have dealt with Phil @ Hog Pro directly in the past and his customer service was some of the best I've experienced.

I got my wheels from hog pro. Second tire I changed the front tire I needed new bearings. Did not notice it myself, but my Indy said it did. Cheap insurance. Only issue I had with hog pro when I got mine was how they were shipped. Rear rim mounted with tire was in an box, minimally minimal packing inside, maybe just a cardboard ring for the hub to sit on. The front rim mounted with tire was in a plastic bag. Clear thin plastic bag. I could feel the blood running up the back off my neck...I was fuming, but there appeared to be no damage so I let it roll off my shoulder. I assume the rime was boxed and maybe got damaged so bad in shipping, Probably from the tire moving so much, that UPS need to do something....the plastic bag.
I would buy from them again. I used to get emails form them about deals they had. Like $1850 for two wheels rotors and pulley on select styles while supplies lasted. Pretty Dang cheap.

Been sporting my powdercoated LeMans from HogPro for 4yrs and 29k miles with no issues.
Phil is the man! Would not hesitate to buy from them again or refer them to anyone.

I dealt with Phil and he is a great guy running a good business. I have had not isses with my wheels and very happy with them on all fronts. I would definately entertain talking to them. I rode in and got mine installed and rode away with a smile!
