RE: 18" or 21" front wheel?
I am partial to the 18" on a bagger, although bikes like GMONEY220 make me question it. You really don't loose much in the way of contact patch when going with the 120 Metz on the fat 21. My personal favorite set up is the 18" front with a lowered bagger fender set up. This way you can get the front fender parallel to the ground and position it so the tire fills out the front lip like a 21 does. JMO. Check out Native Custom Baggers or Klock Werks for lowered fender.

I had the same questions as you. And in the end I am glad I went with the 21" and 18". The looks & the handling are improved. But that is just my opinion.

Denis, took a pic of my buddies Cobalt FLHX today.
I think it looks awesome.

Thnaks for going thru the hassle of taking that shot for me.
I love the wheels he chose! Thing look so nice!
Do you have a pic of the side profile of his bike? Looks like he has some paint work too?!

Denis, I had something on the lense the first few pics I took. It is blurry, but here is the whole thing. He had some striping done just to break the blue up.
Now he is screaming about having to get the back wheel. He also added the trim to the front of the fender.
