Has anyone put custom rims on FATBOB?....I am looking to put FAT 50's on...In 18 inch front and back... I have seen HD's Stinger rims are 18's...I know the tires are different, But does 180 rear stay the same along with 160 in the front? What Rim sizes do I need if I am looking at 180 tire rear and a 160 front and want to change 16 to 18in rim? Any input would be great I am still going back and forward on this issue....on what to due with the rims.....

18 front and back with that fat50 would be kickass - but pricey - dayumm!
I would think youll need to go with a skinnier sidewall with a larger diameter rim, but not sure of specifics - not sure if they make a 180 with a sidewall smaller than 55 - that seems like a big tire to fit under there - dunno - good luck - post pics for sure!

Your main choices are going to be 130/70 or 120/90 for the front 18" rim. I would stick with one of those so you can find replacements later.
Rears are going to be 180/50/60 in general (lower sidewall).
Google will tell you all you need to know.

Saw those on Hog Pro they would look cool in black.....I just want to get away from 16's that way more rim will show..I like the Stinger Rims from HD. Was thinking of buying those and powder coating the center in gloss black leaving the lip in chorme. The Fat 50's in 18 would be very cool and differnet.....
