Default Want 21" Front Wheel- Show Me Yours

I am trying to decide which 21" front wheel to throw on my 2013 Denim Black Street Glide. I have put on V/H Big Shots, V/H FuelPak, 14" black Paul Yaffe's so far, and a Vance & Hines VO2 Intake Kit. I am specifically looking for either a two-tone black/chrome or just black. Price is not an issue; I just want to absolutely happy with my selection. I am also looking for advice in terms of pros and cons of getting an 18" wheel on the rear. Thank you in advance!

Ryan, go to 'Search this forum', then 'Advanced search' and type in '21'. You'll get plenty of threads on 21" front wheels, so you can read and see other members' input.

My RC Components Calypso is in sig picture. Four years into the 7 year finish warranty I had two pitted places on the front wheel less than than the size of a pencil eraser. The rear wheel had one similar area. Mentioned this to the rep at Daytona and long story short they sent me two brand new wheels even though I had no original paperwork. It only cost me shipping one way. Excellent in my book!

Nice set up there Streetrockking.
Good luck in your decision Ryan- I know it is a tough one. I chose to go with a DNA 21" black rim, chrome spokes. However, been waiting on the wheel/rotors to get in for almost 6 weeks now!!! Don't know if that kind of a wait factors into your decison or not?
My Indy tells me he hears back that they are waiting on spokes, then waiting on hubs, etc.

My buddy's DNA 21" mammoth spokes. For me spokes rims looks better on RK.
