Default Wheels??

What r you guys and gals thoughts. Do you think it's a waste to increase your wheel size from 18 to 19. Trying to clean up the front end of my Cvo road king by using a single sided 13 inch rotor with a 6 piston caliper with smooth lower legs. Looking for opinions.

Thanks so much

I don't think so, but it's your wallet. It is hard to find 19" touring tires!

No waste at all if you like the look!

You're going single sided, but only a 19" wheel?

Waste more and get a 21.
