Default 21"/18" wheels installed with pics

I picked up the wheels yesterday from Black Bike. Stock Dyna Hubs with a 21x2.15 in the front and an 18x5.5 in the back. Metzler ME880 tires with a 90/90r21 for the front and a 180/55zr18 in the back. I also had the stock pulley powder coated gloss black. I used some black Hot Toppers to cover the pulley bolts. For rotors, I went with Harley's classic black floating rotors for the front and back. The are identical to the factory floating rotor except the centers are black. What do you guys think.

ummm... wow. I'm just in complete "awe" of your bike! Dude, that thing is wicked man. I'm seriously jealous. What did those wheels cost ya? I'm wanting to do the same exact thing in the future. Just use stock hub, and buy spoked and get them laced. Anyway, sick bike man!

The shop originally quoted me at $365 for the front and $465 for the rear and that included tires but when they realized that they had already done my stock wheels and there already were polished stainless spokes they dropped the price down. They were able to re-use the polished stainless spokes so it was $625 total for both wheels, tires, and powdercoated pulley. The rotors from Harley cost a buch though, $129 each plus $12 each for the chrome hardware. And $60 for the EBC brake pads.
