I like the RideWrights too WARG but the price is up there.Mine were around 2 grand with spokes and rims powder coated and Metzlers installed.Quality is a-one.Nothing is reasonable any more.
yeah, wheels are expensive. I'm in the process of picking some out for my ride. but think about it, there is not much better then a bike with a killer set of wheels.
I got my wheels from Biker's Image. Sure, they are in actuality a muffler shop in Texas that has in internet Harley parts biz on the side, but they have smokin' prices; very small profit margin. Performance Machine folks were shaking their heads when I told them what I paid. Shipping was free as well.
Anything from PM or a lot of other billet wheel manufacturers are made on an "as ordered" basis, so the wait time is always going to be 5 weeks or so. Hogpro may have their "hogpro" sets in stock so that might be a consideration. Spoke wheels are usually a stock item as well.
