    what wheels will easily fit 550 frame?

    My goal Is to fit a set of wire wheels to a 78 550 frame, I dosen't matter the make of the wheels as long as they have twin disc front and single disc rear. Where do i start with this? what measurements do i take into consideration?
    Thanks Rob

      thank you i just bought a 750 front wheel, and am looking for a rear. Is there any possibility to lace a Harley rim to the Suzuki hub so I can fit a larger rear tyre?

        What are you using for a swing arm?

          gs550 wheels

          theres not much room in a standard 550 swingarm. we have a 120/80x18 tyre on a 215 gs750 rim

            I would be using the stock 550 swingarm, it might be possible for me to cut/weld to make a little more space but not much, maybe its best to stay close to standard size?
