Time for new wheels...need help
I have an '05 Springer that I took out for the first time this spring and it had a horrible wobble in the rear end. Found out the spokes are stretching and were loose. The shop told me I could replace the wheel for about $750 or have it respoked for about $600. I thought about just changing out both wheels to something a little more flashy. I'm just in a tough spot. I hate to replace a wheel I never really liked anyway so I would like to replace both but as you know that's ~$2000. Anyone have experience respoking wheels or have any suggestions on what would look good on this bike. Thinking maybe black wheels with Chrome fat spokes?

That price is INSANE...you can have it done for a lot less than that.

I just checked a shop that will true a spoke wheel for $80 and $2.50 per spoke if new ones are needed. Beautiful bike.
