Got the 180 tire kit put on and took a pic so you could campare the two incase you were thinking about buying the 180 tire kit.

Hmmm, sorry to say, but it doesn't really appear that much different or is that just the photgraph? Have you noticed that the ride characteristics have changed?

 

no offense, but it doesn't appear to be worth the money.

Personally I think HD should have left all their rear wheels at 130 instead of following the crowd.

JMHO

 

I think it's the angle of the pic, it looks like it was taken a little left of the bike. I've seen the 180mm on a Street Bob at my dealer, and it looks noticably bigger and beefier.

ya the pic doesnt do it justice. I've seen it as well - it's noticiable

 

There really isn't a HUGE difference, but it does fill up the fender rather nicely. Also, I agree that the pic doesn't do it justice, but gives you and idea. As far as I can tell, the ride characteristics are the same.

If I had it to do over again would I? Yes, because there is a noticiable difference as far as looks go. But don't look for a lot of difference.

 

will evenutally get the 180 kit for my bob when i need a new tire. thanx for the pic & the comparison...

later,
chap

 

How about a before and after pic of the a$$ end. Once filled with air pressure etc it may seem quite a bit diffrent.....

 

Come new tire time I'll go 180. Thanks for the effort.

 

The difference is 1 inch.
