Default Wheels?
I have a chance to buy new street glide wheels with rotors. I want to put them on a 10 RKC. Will the 18" front wheel be a problem or should I wait on a set with 17" front?

I sold my 09 SG wheels to a guy on this site w/a 10 RK and he mounted them.
Same size wheels for the 10 RK as for the 09 SG.
I put on a 18 in the front as I think it tucks in a little nicer in the fender.

I've seen a few RKs with the SG wheels done in chrome and they looked sharp. I had a black RK before the SG so I love the RK and franky my heart is still with them. The chrome SG wheels are outstanding on them. Maybe you could start a thread asking for RKs with SG wheels and maybe you'd see some done both ways with stock wheels and with chrome. I know there are a few on the forum. You can look on ebay and see the chrome exchange cost but you need a set of wheels to use for the chrome exchange.

Oh yeah, Mine may no longer include the rotors and I would drop the price to $200. Mapquest says we are 4 hours apart. I'd meet you half way.

Here a recent Youtube I did of the wheels.

I have the HD Airstrikes on my Road King.

They are just Street Glide wheels in all chrome. 18 front, 16 rear.

Get a lot of compliments, and really easy to keep clean.

They are in the sig pic.
