I ordered the wheels, got PM Contrast cut Wrath wheels, rotors, pulleys, ect, with tires mounted and ready to go.

Went with a 21x3.5 front and a 18 x5.5 in the back with a 180

I am just going to start with 3 degree trees, and maybe go with some 3 degree cups if i still want more out of it.

Accutronix or hawg halters guys?

Hawg Halters, they have a cleaner look to them IMHO. Oh and if you go with HH make sure they send you the wide glide trees, they sent me mid glide trees the first time but made it right and overnighted me the right ones. Simple mistake I guess.

Not sure yet, lol, see how close the fitment is first, them maybe make some extension for current fender. Or just get a new fender but id like to wait until i get paint next year, have it painted same time the bike will be.

Where is a good place with a lot of fender choices?

Not sure were to buy fenders at, but you will definitely need to modify your fender... I got 18's on mine with a 130/70 on the front and have about 3/4" gap between the tire and fender. Just an FYI.

Nobody is saying not to think out of the box and do custom Chit I am all about that.. But if someone is asking for advice who doesnt know to much I would think why spend money on a Fat Bob when you want to do 18 rear and a 21 up front if you can get the Wide Glide which is basically a Fat Bob with a single headlight and a 21 up front and 17 in rear just an opinion.. But hell yeah its your money do what u want OP... enjoy

If ur looking for some fenders you can try sumax they have a few fenders that will fit the dyna if not just get some fenders and start cutting.


And

Estimated ship date on the wheels is 3/31, guess they are backed up. I am going to order the trees in the next week or so.

It will be a while, but I will update with pics when I can!
