My Street Glide has 16" rear wheels/rims, and 17" front wheels/rims. I'm not fond of the stock rims, so I've been checking what else is available. How large can I go? I will stay with the stock 180 rear tire, probably, unless a 200 will fit without rubbing. The nice Blade rims on the new CVO Road Glide are 17" rear, and 18" front, so those would likely fit. One manufacturer suggested I could go with 18" rear and 21" front. I'm tall enough to stand the additional height, but I'm wondering how this might affect handling? I suppose it should improve gas mileage, or are the tires for these rims lower profile so that the overall diameter is the same? Will the ABS still work the same? Can you point me to the posts that might cover any of this?:newsmile036:
