Default Agitator Wheel ?

Anybody put a Contrast Chrome on rear with Mirror Chrome on Front? If so like to see pics of how that'd look. There is local guy with contrast chrome rear I could get pretty good deal on but don't know how that'd look. Opening it up for opinions as you guys are aren't bashful LOL. One last question what's largest tire I can put on 18" Agitator rear? Looks like 180/55B18 is recommended. Not real excited about it raising bike 1/4' to 1/2" but it is what it is.

Don't do it! Matching is always better.

it would probably look a little better than an agitator on the front, with a stock wheel on the rear, but only slightly.

i wouldn't do it.

Save up and get the chrome rear. It's the right thing to do!

Do them both matching or else people will think it's the stocker on the back still. Matching makes sense, buying two wheels that don't match does not make sense to me, of course we all think differently.

Something to keep in mind, you see more of the rim with the 18 vs the 16. More metal, less rubber under the rear of the bike. I've got 12" shocks and 4" mufflers on RGU and still see a lot of the rear rim. Don't think I could be happy with a mismatch.
