Need Opinion on WHEELS !!

Dugan · 04-30-2009, 02:54 AM

If you had to choose between theese 2 wheels what woulsd it be .. I am having a hell of a time making a choice on wheels . Still cant beat the price on these . I am going to keep my spokes and want a set to swap back and forth .

McLovin · 04-30-2009, 03:08 AM

The five spoke, which would be number two....

V · 04-30-2009, 03:13 AM

Yea number 2 but do you have any more chooses? Juss askin since you're spending your geek?

Baldielox · 04-30-2009, 03:24 AM

I'm gonna go with the one on the right...

BorgerBigDog · 04-30-2009, 03:52 AM

Thumper169 · 04-30-2009, 03:55 AM

Well here is the deal . I am wanting wheels and I do not want polished . I am also wanting Ed to do the paint in the next few months and I just ended up dropping cash on a new sporster for my wife that in the last week or so she decided we need to add on about 1100 sq ft to our home because she is wanting a 4 th child . So for now I am trying to go for saving $$$$. I can get these complete with new tires for $1200 but thats the only 2 choices I have for that price that will fit . Now thats the rest of the story .

after 4th child the bike will have to go anyway,, she will say..... so no use getting anything for it but a full tank of gas and a few last rides......

Damn Im jealous.....Happy to hear the Bad Economy has not hit you, sure wish I had Those problems... The ones on the right would be my choice or just chrome the ones you already have. Probably get them done for close to that.

My spokes are chrome . Im sick of cleaning them .

Ok,
if I HAD to choose between the two pictured, then I'd choose the ones on the right.

However,
I would try and wait a while longer to see if things changed and maybe I could afford something nicer looking a few months from now. Not sure if that's an option for you or not.

I've learned that if you rush into making a decision based on your budget, you end up settling for something less than what you really want. Eventually, you end up buying it twice.

Dude I have the same bike as you and if you have the right brush to clean them with it's a piece of cake. These wheels are very accessible both front and rear compared to many other makes and models. I'd never swap mine out. JMO! This is the brush I use.

BIKERDAD61 · 04-30-2009, 11:57 AM

The one on the right.

$1200.00 with new tires sounds like a hell of a deal.

barhopper · 04-30-2009, 01:43 PM

I don't like either. If I HAD to pick one, the one on the right.

Cephus · 04-30-2009, 02:51 PM

I think they are both sharp wheels, but I am leaning more toward the one on the left. I like the double blade better than the single.
