A lot of our customers go with the front wheel to start, with the majority coming back for the matching rear. Most will claim you cannot see the rear and to save some money just get the front at first. Absolutely nothing wrong with that at all, as long as you can handle some of your buddies giving you a hard time about it ... To each his own.

My first wheels swap was for SG wheels. Second step was my 21" and yes you notice the rear one. I will add the rear this winter... (saved for that)

I agree with this. After looking on-line for motorcycle wheels, I've come to the conclusion that H-D has the best prices out there, by far. May not be as fancy as some, but I like several of them, and $1,000-1,500 for a set sure beats $1,500+ each.

 

I can tell if the back wheel is stock.

HD wheels are cheaper than you think or try these guys: http://www.coastalmoto.com/?gclid=CK...FSQeDQodVzaJsw

 

I went with SMC because they make there wheels...and have them in stock. That was the price I paid...didn't try to deal with them.

 

Why do you lower the front end when putting on a 21 front wheel? Whats the best lower kit to use as well? i will be doing this when the snow starts flying! beautiful bikes in this thread ya'll!!

 

I upgraded to the HD Contrast Chrome Agitators. They're good looking wheels and HD actually offers their aftermarket wheels at a decent price. To me, I hated the RG knuckle wheels enough it was worth replacing them both. Once you have upgraded your wheels or if you're contemplating upgrading your wheels, it really stands out to you when someone else has only upgraded the front wheel.

But, it's a personal decision. Some just don't think it's that important and some just don't want to pay the extra money for the extra wheel. Now, I would say if you have an extended rear fender and saddlebags, that rear wheel is even less visible.

 

Because with a bigger diameter wheel you are raising the front end up a little. Lowering it helps even things out. Also helps with handling. I used progressive drop in springs and am happy.

 

Can you tell me if you bottom out any? I'm a 6'4 275 pound guy and plan on the whole wheel upgrade this winter soon as the snow starts but dont wanna be bottoming out every crack in the road! Also what are some ways..Brands of lowering kits that are the best? I have heard of a mono tube? Sweet bike btw

 

RC Compents here. I upgrade my 94 Ultra to CZAR 18" on front and back. Like the look and didn't have to worry about suspension changes.

But as everyone else said. Do what you want its your bike.
