1999 TC FLHTC. I have the spoke wheels and would like to change to the stock alloy wheels. Getting tired of inner tubes, and not being able to plug a tire on the side of the road.
Got lucky the other day when I took a nail in the rear tire , and ended up with only a 2 hour walk home to pick up the trailer.
From what I understand, they have to be the tapered bearing type.
If that's possible it would be the first time I've heard of it.
Getting a mag front wheel for my Train is on my 'to do' list too.
Have you been keeping an eye on ebay?
With a name like "Bald Tire" you're bound a to get a few flats though.
It does seem like something difficult to do. Balancing issues, leakage issues, etc...
I am keeping an eye on ebay. I would accept just about any condition as long as they were straight and not dinged up. Would plan on bead blasting and powdercoating them anyway.
