Default RE: Need opinion on mismatched wheels

I changed out the front spoketo a mag & chromed the stock rear. I matched the sprocket to the front to tie them in. Being that the rear is a dish with round holes I thought it would look fine. I'm very happy with the results. As long as the back is a solid dish or just holes like mine I think you can do anything you want too with the front. Different designs going in different directions would not look good.

Some bikes look great with two differant wheels and some just end up looking cheap. Why don't you just chrome your stock wheels that would look great and cost way less, probably enough cheaper you could get both done and still save.

Of all the H-D models, I believe the Fatboy's can get away withstock on the back and something different on the front and not look out of place.

GO FOR IT !!!!
