I know I have seen an XS with what appears to be an 18" chrome steel rear rim with a drum brake. What year and models were they on? I have an 83 Heritage special and I don't really care for the double laced front and rear rims. I want to have a nice 21"er up front and an 18" rear both chromed steel. Can I do this with Yammy rims?

the earlier models used a chrome steel wheel. if you want a 21 inch wheel you will need a dirt bike rim and lace it onto your front hub.

69-72 had steel wheels, not sure about 73 and 4
But you can lace up to any xs standard hub what you want for a wheel as long as its 36 spoke and you have the right spokes.
