Default Will Streetbob wheel fit on a Wideglide?

I did a search but it's still unclear to me. I have a 21 x 2.15 spoked wheel with tire that came off an '07 Streetbob. Will it fit on an '11 Wideglide?
Thanks

Cool

Ok there is no simple answer without more information.

If the Street Bob wheel has the original mid glide aluminum hub, the wheel will not fit the Wide Glide without custom size wheel spacers.

If the Street Bob was converted to wide glide trees and the wheel has the wide glide hub, it will fit the WG with no problem using the factory wheel spacers from the WG.

Most likely the wheel is a standard Street Bob mid glide hub and would require custom spacers to be installed on the WG.......

You can have the wheel laced to your WG hub, which would solve your problem......

Exclamation

Oh yeah....forgot one other issue....I believe the 07 Street Bob wheel has 1 inch bearings....you will need to install 25mm bearings to install the wheel on the WG.

The reason Doom went through the whole explanation of hub size and why your research turned up nothing is because no Street Bob ever came from the factory with a 21" wheel. Somebody either converted the Street Bob front end to a Wide Glide or relaced a 21" rim the the Street Bob's Mid Glide hub.

You're right and I should've pointed that out. I got the bike with a 21" and put a 19" back on it which is why it's for sale.
