Default 21x3,5 on Rocker?

Can I go with 21x3,5 (120 tire) on my Rocker if I remove the fender? Or is it only 3,25x21 that will fit with the narrow trees?

I put a 110x19 on my rocker and it fits real nice to the fender. Do a search on here. A bunch of folks have done this. According to them, if you put a 21 on the front, you can just re-drill the fender mounts on the stock fender and remount it. Good luck.

that's what I run on mine, I recently put wide glide trees on my bike, but not because of the tire being too wide for the mid glide. It filled up the mid-glide front very nice. You will also notice a huge improvement in handling. Definately do it as you will not regret the decision. With a 21 you will have to go with a new fender from Bitchin' seats or heartland as the stock fender will not have the correct radius for the 21.

Your bike looks great with the wide trees. I´m also thinking of putting 4 degree trees on my bike. Is your bike lowered in the front?

Thanks. The answer is yes & no.

The bike is lowered 1" in the rear so the front has stock ride height, but the 4 degree rake essentially lowers the front 2" by kicking out the front making the bike level.

Hey Rockerz, did you get the 4 degree trees from Rich? I've shot him through a few emails with no reply, are they still trading?

Yes, got them from Rich. Pictures don't do them justice.

He's so busy, his plate is so full that he doesn't answer emails regularly, PM me & I can give you his cel number. I either call or text him.

Yes they will, just make sure the hubs you get with your wheels will center properly.
