Trying to figure out what fits my bike? I think the Sportster changed in 05' to a 1" axle? Will wheels off of a 2011-2012 Sportster swap right out? I see some that say 2000-2012 the I see 2008 and up,then I see 2004-2007 so I am getting confused......
Dyna wheels?
Fat Boy wheels?

 

The 00-04 Sporty's have 3/4" axles, front & rear.
The 05 - 07 Sporty changes to a 1" rear axle.
In 08 the axles were changed to 25mm.

 

You can use them all by simply swapping to the bearing/spacer size to match your axle size.

 

If you run down to the dealer he will give you a free Harley catalog that shows what fits what.

 

I promise you the dealer won't know as much as we have told him here...

 

So it's as easy as swapping out bearings/spacers to fit say the new 2012 Sportster Custom mags with the 18" rear onto my bike?

 

I've always gone backwards rather than forward in years for wheel swaps, but I would say in your case yes. You can eyeball the spacers used on the newer bikes and just about tell if they are the same as yours...doubt there has been any swingarm changes on the Sportsters yet. The front wheel is another matter as it would need to be from a narrow glide model as H-D has been moving to a funky mid-glide version on many of the newer bikes. I contemplated a set of wheels for my '07 off a new SuperLow, but I just could not stomach the price.

 

Those were some other rims I was thinking of to....buying used would be the only option for me to buy factory wheels,at full price I may as well buy a custom set for my bike Dam my bud for getting that 1200C with the custom rims on it,they look to damn nice!

 

Here are the SuperLow's on a Nightster...
