Default 07 FLHR Aftermarket Spoke Wheel Recomendations

There is just "So Much" information out there for aftermarket wheels. Looking to replace my '07 Road King wagon wheels with some big spoke wheels. (Chrome or Aluminum) 21" X 3.5" on the front and 18" X 4.25" on the rear. Hoping to get a few "Testimonials" on what you guys have found out there.

Thanks much,

Springer

There have been some mixed reviews on the DNA Mammoth quality in general. Rideright and Sinister wheels have good reviews and the quality is good.

I have the Sinister Big Daddy fat spokes on my '13 King and have been very satisfied with the look and quality. I do have the 21" front with matching 16" rear wheels. I wanted to keep the same size as OEM for the rear for a softer ride than the 18". They do have the 18" for your '07 and the fat spokes come in 2 styles, a smooth rim or stepped rim. They also offer different color combos for the rim, nibs, spokes and hub if you like that.

An older pic, but my cool weather configuration. Just got back from the Blue Ridge Pkwy - beautiful with all of the fall colors. Can't see much of the rear wheel, but the 21" fronts with matching rotors.




My normal riding config.

Do they use the same bearings as the stock wheels?

Nice looking bike.

I have a 21" Mammoth 52 fat spoke. Very happy with the quality.

Thanks man.

Sinister already provides the bearing and ABS sensor, if you have it, on the front wheel for your bike. You just need to figure out if you need matching rotors, etc.
