Custom Wheels - Help please!!!
You fellas seem to have good taste...when it comes to your bikes anyway, lol. Lots of awesome bikes out there. I'm getting ready to bite the bullet and buy some custom wheels for my Fat Boy. I've got it narrowed down to two but i just can't seem to pull the trigger. I like them both. What do you guys think? I should say that I'm using these photos from Hogpro's site because i wanted to see how they looked on a Fat Boy. I'm no salesman.

Wheels are such a personal thing.
It really is what you like, because you get tons of different answers on questions like this.
But since you asked, I would prefer the second over the first. The first was just too busy and flashy.

Tough choice, i think either one would look great. Ive got the Hog Pro classics on my Deuce because i didnt want any more than 5 spokes.
I like the 1st one better, the fatboy is a little beefier, i think it would be a good match.

I just put a set of the 18"8 spokes on my 01 Fatboy this winter. I've been out on a few rides and down to the local watering hole and get all kinds of compliments on them. I also put some 3" spike axle covers on. Do yourself a favor and get the Metzlers the bike is way more responsive than it was with the stock stock tires. If you get the F3 hub you can get a metz 160/70/18 on there without any mods.
