    Evening Folks

    I Have a 2017 Street Glide & I.m looking at lowering it.

    Can I just change the size of the Front Wheel,

    Currently running 

    Front Wheel is a 130/60-B19

    Rear Wheel is a 180/65-B16

    Can I run a 16 on the front, if so what would need changing


    Cheers

    I'm going in the other direction but I think the way would be to put a smaller set of springs in the forks and keep the wheels/tyres the same. Would be pretty expensive to change the lot.
