Hey guys, I did search for a bit...but couldnt find anything good.
Omars kit - $295 seems a bit strong. omarsdtr.com/stwheel.html
Are there any other options? Any DIY type solutions?
Thanks!

I had a hard time finding any 19" tires wider than 3.50". I know they exist because I've seen them on antique bikes that have 19" front and rear(probably chinese tires that I'd have to import).

Depending on what kind of brake setup you are wanting to use, you could try to find a Harley wheel. You may have to make spacers/adapters for the sprocket and rotor. I think Harley style is going to be the only 19" rim that will be wide enough. I may be wrong though.
I'm planning on running a 19x2.5 rim with a 100/90-19 tire on the rear. That's a while down the road though. Just got the bike and it's not even running yet.
