Has anyone install a chrome wheel on just the front on a street glide? I'm thinking of doing this and leaving the rear wheel stock.... not sure if it will look OK.
The chrome wheel with a chrome front end will look awesome. It's up to you whether you can live with it or not. The bags cover it all, right? For me? They have to match, but, I'm weird that way....

I have a Road King but same idea. I have only replaced the front wheel with the intention of later adding the rear, but I'm in no rush. It is not very noticable and I usually have to point it out, no one notices.
Rear Chrome wheel, 2 Chrome rotors and hardware is a lot of money to hide behind saddlebags.
I have a chrome wheel on the front...Back is stock..waiting for the back tire too wear out to buy a matching chrome one or a solid chrome rim since you cant see much on it...It does look funny with one wheel chrome.
