I have a few points:
1) If you have to ask the question, then I would put a matching wheel on the back.
Apparently you notice it or you wouldn’t have asked.
2) For all those people who say: you can only see it on the side stand, you can’t see it going down the road.
You can only see the front wheel on the side stand also, DUH.
And like one poster said in pictures it’s easy to hide, but in person it stands out very noticeable.
3) For all those people that say the Wide Glide has mismatched wheels so it’s OK,
the Wide Glide looks better with matching wheels.
You can just do one front wheel at first and see how it goes.
But I’ll bet every time you look at your bike you will notice it. That’s what I did the first time.
You did do the painted "inner fairing" to make everything match. So don’t cheap out now. lol

I have been on mismatched wheel for over a year now if that tells you how much I care or how many times people in public make any comments. I have gotten numerous comments at lights about the front though. Not one in person about the rear.

Mines the same. Not the best pic to tell. I've got the black 19" tho. Only 1 person has ever noticed mine

That is a great looking scoot!! I would leave the back wheel alone and lower it to hide it some more
