If the low rider has the same fender as the rest of the "narrow glide" dynas and sportsters you should be fine with the 21" wheel. I put a 21" on my 04 sportster and it fit under the stock fender with no issues.

Default what size rim can i go with

should i put a 2.15 rim or the 2.50 rim with the 21 inch tire on my 2004 low rider and will it bolt up to the forks ok, the stock rim size is 2.15. I was told that the 2.15 x 21 inch rim has a max tire size of 90/90/21 but the 2.50 rim can go with the 100/90/21,,, the bottom line is i want the 21 inch tire with the 100/90 tire, will this fit hope some body can help with this ,

The chart I'm gonna post here says 90/90-21 is as big a tire that will fit a 21x2.15 wheel. Your results may vary.

Default need more help with 21 inch

OK I know the chart says standard for the low rider 2004 rim is 19x2.5 and the tire is 1oo/90/19, and the max for that bike is 21 inch rim 2.15 and the tire is 90/90/21, my question is why not the 100/90/21 tire fit the 21 inch
