my fatboy has 18's also. Check out my photo album.

 

That looks great! What size is your front tire? It fills the fender better than mine and looks better. I want to go to a larger front tire but I have wear this one out first. That's a 130/60 on mine. I'm thinking that something like a 140/75 would look good if they make that in an 18. I like the blue too!

My front is Avon140/70-18. Fills the fender nicely.

 

Good choice, looks great!

The wheels I put on mine are Performance Machine. They were purchased as assemblies with tires, spacers, belt pulley and brake rotors. Everything fit and went on without a hitch. I did the exchange myself. When I have to replace the front tire I want to use a larger diameter one. The low profile on the 18 is actually a good bit shorter than the original 17. Coastal Moto has a large selection of wheels so their site is a good place to take a look. If you purchase on ebay or somewhere, the front axle got bigger in 07 or 08 so keep that in mind when buying that you need wheels forj a 3/4" axle. The newer ones have a 1" axle if memory serves me right on those. Good luck!

Soldierbot, how do they fit in the rear? I think I have those exact wheels. I just bought a 21x3.5 and 18x3.5 set up.

I want to put a 150/70-18 Avon in the rear but I am worried about the fit. Does anyone know if there is a rubbing concern with the fender or any kind of fitment issue like this?

I have a 2002 FLSTFi that currently has the stock wheels. Cant wait to get rid of the solid wheels!!

Look forward to your response(s)

 

I am running a 150x70-18 Avon on my 06 and it fits fine.

 

Runnin 160/70-18 no problem. 4.25" rim though.

 

Oh, mine is on a 3.5" rim.
