I'm not a fan of the Chrome Air Strike rims at all. I think the stock rims look better than those.

Get the rims you want, you will have them for a long time and will wish you had.

Buy the new Samsung Smart TV and then get Chrome Air Strike wheels so keep to "stock modified" look.....and be able to do it now. This will keep other costs down, such as new tires, and rotors.

Option 2:
Wait on the TV and get the Contrast Chrome Agitators ( I found a set and have them on hold).

Either way, I win....but I have yet to see anyone with chrome, stock, Street Glide wheels, so the might be cool....and the TV is soooooooooo bad ***! But....If I'm gonna spend anything on wheels of any kind, should I go different then stock?

How often do you trade bikes? If it's a long term investment, do it once and do it right.

If you'll trade before you replace the tv again, go with option 1.

I went with the contrast roulettes on my Ultra. They look great IMHO and use the original tires and rotors. Wheels are an awesome upgrade for any bike and will set yours apart from most others. Buy what you want the first time though, if not you'll be replacing them in a short while.
