06-08 flhx rims
Are the 16 x 3 rims that come stock on these bikes the same front and rear? Can I run a front rim in the rear?
|
I wrecked my rear rim, I can buy a 16 x 3 front rim cheap. Will it work? Is the front rim the same? Yes I will be putting the rear rotor, cush drive, and rear tire on it. Anyone? Trying to buy today.

Well...not without machine work that's wasted on a 16" wheel (because Rears are available). On a 18" rim...that's a different story. Rear Has: - Slightly wider hub - Different bolt sizes for both pulley and rotor - Offset (hub isn't centered within wheel) You know why 16" Front Airstrikes are relatively cheap?...because very few people want them...they are undesireable. |
Yes you did thanks, I almost pulled the trigger on a cheap front to run in the rear, Thanks again. Now I just have to decide if I want to invest the money in a stock rear or just upgrade to aftermarket bigger chrome wheels front and rear.
