Default Best Mag Wheels for Dual Disc Conversion

I am in the process of upgrading the front end of my 09 FXDL. I purchased a front end from Howard at Motor Cycle Metal, which has dual caliper compatible front fork legs (vrod) and also upgraded the suspension to 30mm Ohlins drop in cartridges. I have also purchased the brembo dual disc conversion kit with 320 mm rotors from Howard at Motor Cycle Metal.

My current front wheel is only single disc compatible. What are my most cost effective alternatives for a dual disc front wheel? Of course, I would also have to swap out the rear to match the front.

I was thinking of running the HD 6 Spoke Slotted Mag wheels, I think they look pretty cool and are relatively affordable compared to the rest out there.

Thanks
Bucket

I used the HD stinger wheels for a Fat Bob with FB trees, FB sliders and a second FB caliper, used FB front fender and it bolted right up. Wheels run $750 each or $600 if you get them online. Rear bolted right up as well with the stock spacers.

I have a 99 fxdx and I was hoping a sportster wheel will fit. Still doing research if the duel disc will work with it or not..
