    Pretty sure a Wideglide front end is wider than a Streetbob front end so a Wideglide hub won't fit..

    The gap seems to be the same just the forks are smaller on the wide glide

    Need to be clear, are you planning on lacing on a WG rim to your Streetbob hub (which I think your post suggests) or do you want to use a WG wheel?

    I’d just jam a new rim on the existing hub, replace the spokes with stainless while you’re at it, lot less screwing around.
    You’ll want to check tyre radius as well, not sure how replacing a rim may affect the abs sensor, do they rely on the rolling radius?
