    Hi guys i did a search and couldn't find anything so i thought i'd ask a question, the standard fatbob wheels to me look bland and as the title says i'm looking at Streetglide rims as i do like the design. So what is you views on this

    don't know if this will help but, Last week I fitted my fatbob 2012 front on to the 2012 Roadglide. The only thing I had to do was shim the right side caplier. Road it about 30km's and no problems. Getting the discs in the center of the capiler's should be the only issue other than if you have ABS getting the correct bearings

    Hmm thanks for that ozymax i'll go buy me a set of streetglide rims and piss fart around, i expected to either shim or machine the spacers for the front, the rear from what i can tell should just need the bob spacers. i'll let you know how i go

    on mine it was the disc spacing so I had to shim the capiler.
    take a tape down to the Harley shop and measure a few bikes to see what looks the best way to go
