Tim;
Wheels look great!

One bit of caution to you, be SURE that you enlarge the holes in the fender mounts and lift it up from the back of the tire. With the 21" tire in the stock fender I cannot tell you how many I have seen with the paint burned through from the tire hitting the inside of the fender.

Jim,
Thanks for the heads up on that one,
-must be the tires expanding with the
heat from riding?
Yikes don't want to have to buy a new fender!
Thanks again!

Tim,
The rim's looks awesome but think what it would look like with this front fender on it all painted to match :2vrolijk_21:

How much is it raising the front end of the bike when you do a 21" front tire.  I've looked at the Avon and metzler specs and it doesn't seem that much....an inch?  But when looking at pictues, the illusion of the  bigger wheel up there looks like the front end is raised 2-3 inches!!!

And I'd agree that you're looking at it correctly.........over 2 inches.  spyder
