Too "trendy" for my tastes. FL front ends should have a 16". 21s under an FL style fender look like a midget wearing an extra large condom.

Oh well, I will be in the market for a set of 16" wire wheels soon to replace the solids on my FB. Glad to see there will be plenty for sale on Ebay soon.

Are the contrast wheels all chrome then paint over that?? I like the contrast look but can't stand the maintenance on polished aluminum. That would be a deal breaker for the contrast wheels.

To each their own brother. If everyone had the same tastes, this would be a boring a$$ world. Or mullets maybe. God bless America!!! Home of the brave and freedom to choose.

I think the old school look of the customs look better with the little wheels too. But the Standards, Road Glides and Street Glides look great with 21's
