So will a 130 / 70 / 18 front tire fit where a 130 / 80 / 17 was originally, is the outside diameters close to the same and have no clearance issues. Like the looks of the street glide rims found a great deal on a set with new tires on them. Help!!!
Make sure you have ABS bearings in the wheels if you have ABS brakes. You need the correct bearings to work correctly.
I just bought a set of Street Glide wheels for my Ultra Classic. My new (to me) front wheel is a 18" also off a 2011 Street Glide going on my 2010 Ultra Classic.
I like the looks and the ability to check tire pressure a lot easier.
When I need tires I'll change the wheels at the same time.
