Default 30" Wheels On Baggers

I got to see several baggers this weekend with these enormous 30" wheels.
I know these are the "going thing" right now.

I just want to say, if you install one of these monsters on your bagger.......
You're bike is freakin' hideous!

YES!
Without me even seeing it...it's hideous!
They look terrible on these baggers.

The monster front wheels will join the 300 rear tires soon enough.

i gotta ask... is there any real positive or negative on the bikes handling with one of these giant front wheels? I get it that they're cool and everyone wants to have their own style on their ride, but I would draw the line at things that remove or reduce function of the ride. If it doesn't affect the ride, then by all means... have at it cuz I think it looks bad ***.

21" or 23" looks the best. Loved the way my 21" rode. There's no balance to those bikes on those 30" rims. My opinion.

I went 21, handles and looks good. No more upsizing anything else but the engine.
