2006 FLHXI changed wheels from 16's to 18 Rear and 21front
I'm new at this forum thing, anyway my question is. I have a 2006 Street Glide that I recentlly change out the 16 inch stock wheels to a 21" 120/70/21in the front and 18 150/70/18 on the rear. My Street Glide use to have that low look in the back from the factory. After I put the new billet wheels and tires on the bike it sits level from front to back. I would like to have the sloped look back but I'm not sure how much I should lower the back and when I do if I have to lower the front too. I would like to make it sit more like it did from the factory with the added ground clearance. The wheels look great with no rubbing and I dont have the floor board scrapping problem anymore. Any help would be great.. Thanks

No, I was going to go with 18's front and back but the 21 looks so much better in the front. The ride in the back with the 18 is a little stiffer so my partener says.The bike handles better then before butI think it is because of the metzlerstires i used. The bike does sit higher and more level so If your looking to keep the slope look you will have to lower the back end. There is also an 19" front wheel option if you don't wantthe 21. I used Hog Pro they were awsome with no presure and answered all my question, customer service was A+.
