Default 16" fat spoke pic request

Ok, kcint gave me a good price on DNA Mammoth wheels, rotors and pulley for a 16" front and rear set up. I don't like the size of the 18" Dunlop WWW tire and with the uncertainty of Tab continuing to make custom www's and the concern that if I destroy a custom tire I'll be bike less for to long I'm about 95% sure I'm going to stick to stock sized wheels.

So does anyone have any pictures of their sled with 16" fat spokes front and rear, and possibly with WWW tire? I'd love to see em


Thanks

Utz has them, look up his user pics.

What didn't you like about the 18" www ? I liked mine just wanted to go bigger if I was getting wheels.

In my opinion the 16" look too bunched up

I'd be happy with the Matrix too, but I got my wheels and a shotgun for the same price as the Matrix

This is mine with an 18" on it

My concern with the 18" tire is it won't have that wide look on the front end that I like a lot.

I'm set on the DNA's, I love the price at just over 1000 for the package you can't beat it. Granted that's reusing my stock tires, which with just over 2000 miles they are pretty new.

I'll look up utz's pictures.

The Dunlop 18" is wide, I think its an inch wider than my DB WW on the rear

Here is a close up. Just think the 18" gives it a bit more of a custom look

I prefer the old school look of fat, beefy white walls so I stuck with 16's.

Kozy does the 18" fill the fender out like the stock tire?

prldrm your bike looks sick, are those spokes chrome or stainless? KCint didn't have the black rims in stock, I am 75/25% chrome/black rims, you moved it closer to 50/50 since waiting isn't an issue with winter around the corner. I looked at UTZ bike as well and I have to admit I do like the 16" fat spoke look, gives that fat look.

Thanks! The spokes on mine are stainless. UTZ's is one of the bikes I looked at before buying my wheels too. I actually thought they looked a little cluttered in 16's, but then they grew on me and the WW thickness and availability weighed in pretty heavily.
