I hate to be the guy that hits you guys with a thread on wheels but I've done a search on "Smoothies" "Solid Wheels" etc etc and not getting many results. Any members have 16" 18" 19" 21" Smoothies of any kind for a RK? Pics? I'm concidering the Hogpro 18's and would like to see what it'll look like before I commit?
Not worried about the so called side wind thing so no need for the warnings. I just wasn't born with the 'fear' gene.
When I changed my front wheel on the SG I put on a Colorado Custom wheel from Hog Pro. I was going to put a Hog Pro smoothie on the back but Phil at Hog Pro talked me out of it. He said it is a heavy wheel and that it would only save me about $100. I decided to buy a wheel matching my front. IMO looks better than a smoothie. I will say though a smoothie looks better than stock.
I'm probably just going to change out the front for now. There are quite a few places making the smoothie. Heck, even Weld is making one. I've always been nutz about the solid dish wheels. I'm still diggin for pics.
You just made my day. Thats what I envisioned. I'm guessing those are 21's. I was affraid the 21's wouldnt look right.....but thats spot on what I like!
I like how that looks, but does that rim behave like the fatboy solid rims? I'm refering to the cross winds? I hear they can be a bear because wind does not cross through them?

I've heard the same thing but, I really do like the look!

I've seen so much debate over this and one fella put it in engineering terms that just made sense to me. I decided I'm going to be my own guinea pig and give it a whirl. I'll let everyone know what comes of it. Thanks for the warning though.
