I like those wheels. Best stock hd wheel for a dyna. I had no clue how to make them fit so I ha to spend the change on te performance machine wheels. Looking forward to watching this build.

 

heres a street bob with the front 13 spoke wheel and a rear 10 spoke...

 

Great post. Looking forward to updates.

 

I have an 04 FXDX rear wheel I like to get rid of. Check the parts for sale section.

 

The 180 fits on a 3 inch rim, It does bulge alot but looks really nice. That being said I think the fender on my FXDX is only wide enuff for a 160. The 06 up Dynas have a wider rear fender though.

 

the 180 rolls way too much on a 3.5 rim. ridden that setup and it felt sketchy in corners. Is the rear hub width the same on older and newer dynas? you gonna have rear brake and pulley issues?

 

Finished this same set up on a 2007 FXDB switching to 2005 FXDX Wheels. Some things I found out:

Bearings definitely fit for 1" Axle. Just picked up a Wheel Installation Kit For the front and rear (P/N# 43848-08A & 43861-08A $70 each) and used a homemade bearing press (3/4" Threaded Rod with Nuts and about 10 washers-under $10). Put the bearings in the freezer overnight and used a bit (re:alot) of Anti-sieze and they slid in perfectly.

Spun on some ME880s and Plasti-dipped them. The Rear wheel fit perfectly with the stock spacers, but the front wheel hub is (as noted before) thinner than stock. Hopped along to the machine shop and they made me up some 1.050" Spacers using the stock ones for templates. Once the wheel was bolted up and good to go, I needed to get the calipers (plural-more on that later) to fit on a wheel with a smaller hub. I used some cheap washers to space them out appropriately (about a 1/4" or so) and that was that. 200 Miles so far.

 

As for the dual calipers-not really for this thread, but I swapped out my stock right slider for a 2010 FXDF Lower. Plasti-dipped them both and they lined up perfectly. Fender is a little cockeyed but I can fix that with a drill.

 

 

that came out bitchen, i ended up selling my wheels since i was off work for 4 weeks but i will get another set soon....
