Can you go from 16x3 to 16x3.5 without any modifications (brakes, swingarm, etc)? I noticed that Performance Machine wheels are all 16x3.5 for the 2005 FLSTF.

Yes, I recently purchased new RC Component wheels (Calyspo's) w/ matching rotors & belt pulley, and Metzeler 880 tires for my 04' Fatty. I stepped up to an 18" diameter, retained the 3.5" width for front, but increased to 4.5" for rear. Perfect fit - no clearance issues with fenders, swingarm, belt alignment, etc.
Very, very happy with the look and performance, which was immediately noticeable on that first ride.
