Default 07 wheels on 08+

just purchased (stole) an 08 flht..love it.. hate the wheels so bad i cant look at it
dealer tells me 08 + wheels have a different part #
i found a deal on a set of 07 s/g profile laced wheels..will they bolt on??
i e mailled a guy on e bay selling polished street glide mags and he says previous to 08 they used 1 inch bearings and after 08 they used 25 mm bearings but both are physically the same
i'm soooooo confused?
help!

You'll need a bearing change from the 08 to the 07 bearing, but they'll work.

I changed wheels on 07 to 08, have to change bearings and spacers. Can't think of any reason it won't work the other way. Still have 08 spacers, if you need 'em, let me know and you can have 'em for shipping.

there is a difference of .015 india. of the axles. just change the '07 bearings to '08 and you should be good to go. I took off the P.O.S. HD laced wheels on my King for the stock wagon wheels from an '08 and that's all I had to do was the bearing swap.
