Hey Rich, I may have asked before, but i'm lookin at the pic, and the wheels look great on the bike. Are those the Stock tire sizes and is the bike Lowered at all ?

Yes, they are stock size tires. And I did lower the rear with adjustable Progressive Suspension shocks.

Default rear wheel bearings/Ultima King Spoke

Here's my question. I want to run the 16x5.5 rear wheel on a Redneck Engineering softail style frame built to run a 200 rear tire. The axle is 1". Since they only make that wheel for a 3/4" axle, could I change the wheel bearings to ones that will
accept the 1" axle?

Email Jireh. They're actually pretty quick on their response time.

Have any of yall with these wheels experienced and alignment issues, I purchased a 21x2.15 (Night Train) front and after I got it all installed and put my new klock werks front wrapper fender the wheel is offset to one side of the fender, so I pulled the fender and set the oem fender on there and it's offset also I pulled the front wheel off and checked the spacers and have the long one on the brake rotor side which is correct I believe. I am at a loss at the moment of what to do I started to sand down the klock werks fender spacers and that hasn't helped

did you use the original spacers? is your rotor lined up with the caliper?

Yes used original spacers and the the rotor lines up good, it rides fine too but just looks offset to both fenders (stock and klock werks)

Thanks again to (bikerlaw) for the original thread. I was just about to drop $1k on a set of DNA's. That thread saved me over $500.00

Here's some pics













A salute to a sweet bike.

Thanks

Hi,
Sorry for answering late but I've been absent for a while...
My tires are Dunlop 402F in front and 402 at rear.
