Yeah when they go on I'll dump it on it's ass and push the bars forward 90 degrees should look alright . I was gonna put a smooth lace original spoked wheel on the rear but could not find one and Peter Stevens wants gold for it 900 bucks .
All my Max Spoke Wheels will be in mid Jan, This is a 23" that we supplyed a customer a few months ago
I suppose if you saw the whole bike it might look better . I reckon they look awsome when they put 21's with white walls on Deluxe's and Heritage's .
Hey walker what size rear tyre did you supply Dan for his fat spokes , was it 200/50/18 Metzeler ? I wanna keep the 200 rear look and have my rims come in yet I'm on edge wanna put them on with the good weather lol .
Can anyone recommend somewhere i can get fat spoke wheels for my 2011 softail Deluxe, with ABS ,
I assume it is possible to do, as there are 2011-12 models that come out with 21'' front wheels, and have ABS as standard,
i am going 21'' x 3.5'' front, and 16 ''x 3.5 '' rear Mammoth spoke Type wheels
But have been told by some that the ABS would have to be disconnected, ( not an option)
any input / feedback
cheers TB1
nice wheels !! do the new wheels have an ABS hub fitted ?? i spoke to the shop im getting my softail slim from and they told me it should be fine to fit a 21" front wheel as long as you get a hub with the pick ups for ABS. but nice wheels mate, post pics when you have fitted them !!
Fitted mine from Ian shitty photo gotta take more . Does anyone know anybody who does white walls in Melbourne? cheers
Here's a before shot
mate are the metzelers made to order from the us, and over 400 bucks.? has anyone here had white walls done here? i've seen a couple they look ok. makes those 16'' look pretty weird, i'm lookin at doin my rkc to 21x3.5 normal spoked. your bike will look fuckin sweet.
thanks for that great info,difinenty follow it up. cheers moff.
Hanging to see what ya bike looks like S.D.M.F I have the exact same bike but with v&h big radious and am looking at puting a 23 on the front in the future.
Looks the grouse can you get that front wheel in a 23 and also can you get a 23 front tyre white wall ? thanks.
Ok been following this thread with some interest. I live in Bum Fuck Idaho so all my research is web based (and that is not something I have hours to use) as opposed to meeting the locals and swapping info, or popping in the local custom shop. My Bike is an 2008 deluxe without ABS. Couple of questions, Looking at the Attitude Inc Rims in Chrome 1: Does a 21" front wheel fit without modification in relation to brake and guard and spacers. From my reading it does? 2: What is reqd to fit a 23" front wheel eg Guard mods brakes etc. not sure on this one. Obiviously I would like to match the rear to the front in the same rim. Is there room to move to a slightly larger rim and tyre without guard, brake etc mod? eg a 16x3.5 as opposed to a 16x3.0 and maybe a slightly larger tyre than the std MU85/16
What do the Tyres cost approx? been to Vee rubber site and no prices listed.
Not the best picture but would appreciate feedback from those in the know.....(both know how to smile for a camera apparently)
Thanks
