2017 Road King Wire Spoke Wheels
Hi Guys,
I have a 2017 Road King (US Model) and I want to remove my Mag wheels and tires and ad the Wire Spoke wheels and whitewall tires, like the 2017 Road King Classics sold in the UK. I'm not sure but I was told that if I found a set of wire wheels from a 2009 and up Road King Classic that they would fit. Is this correct? Does anyone have any for sale? Please advise. Thanks,
Billy

Yes, they will fit. Laced Spoke wheels from any 09-later "Touring" will fit.
Look in the Classifieds
Be aware later "Profile" (smoothie) laced spoke wheels can be "Tubeless", but not the early ones...if you care
Also keep in mind whether the wheels have ABS bearings or not

Thanks guys, now locating a nice set of wheels.
I love the Road King Classic look. I am also looking for a set of Road King Classic leather bags, solo seat and another set of bars. But I haven't decided which bars would give it that classic look. Maybe Beach bars?

If your 2017 RK has a "Mag" wheel, the rotor won't fit because it is a "Spoke Mounted" rotor (No center hole and large bolt hole circle). The 2013 Touring uses a "Hub Mounted" Rotor.
If your 2017 has Laced Spokes, then they will fit
Just look at photo of the two bikes

My 2017 RK has Mag Wheels. What do I need to do? If I buy RK wire wheels from 2009 and later and get new rotors will that work?
