Default wheels for springers

I want to put a set of 9 spoke wheels from the harley catalog on my 07 springer classic. None of the wheels in the book say anything about fitting on springers. does anybody out there know if they will fit? Or do I have to do a different axle or what? May thanks for any help.

the front wheel offset is different than a standard hydraulic front end. I doubt HD has a configuration that will work, try a real wheel company like PM or RC Components.

Thanks Thats what I thought you would think H-D would make more for the springer. It seems that the springer is the bastard child of the line

I think most of the HD wheels for softails will work, you just have to get the right intallation kit....

It's mostly about spacers.......I put a standard FLST wheel from ride wright on my springer...

I had to shim the brake caliper just a bit.... All else is good....
