Okay,I'm a newbie,first post... I need advice I want more traction / rubber on the road ,looking to go to a wider 21" rim x 3.5 instead of the stock pizza cutter width size of 2.15.... especially since I have 21 inch apes on my Dyna wideglide 100th anniversary edition..Questions
1) is 3.5 width too wide for this bike??

2) people say I should go to a metz 880 Marathon ..Michelin commander? what is a good tire for a 21" x 3.5 front wheel?

3) does this mean I need to change to same brand tire in the back?running 16 x 3 dunlop tire in the back ??
Thanks in advance
 
i don't see why you could not put a wider wheel on it just have to get the right spacers to go with it .........outher than looks your prob not going to change much by putting the new tire/wheel on
 
I changed mine to a 3.5 metz works great the only problem is the front fender had to tweak it and theres not much clearance you really need a wider fender but it feels better in the curves,jel
