Harley Davidson Chrome Wire Spoke Motorcycle Wheel Assembly With Tire Appraisal

Harley-Davidson Chrome Wire-Spoke Motorcycle Wheel Assembly with Tire

This item is a Harley-Davidson motorcycle wheel assembly, featuring a chrome-plated wire-spoke rim and hubcap, mounted with a tire. The tire displays a vintage-style tread pattern, characterized by numerous closely spaced horizontal grooves, with 'HARLEY-DAVIDSON' embossed on the sidewall, indicating its manufacturer and likely original application. The wheel itself is constructed with a multitude of thin, bright chrome spokes radiating from the central hub, which is covered by a highly polished, dome-shaped chrome hubcap. The chrome finish on both the spokes and the rim appears to be in good condition, showing some reflections of the surrounding environment, but no major tarnishing or pitting visible from this angle. There are no obvious signs of significant damage such as bends in the rim or broken spokes. The tire shows some wear but appears to have decent tread depth remaining. While specific dimensions are not provided, it appears to be a standard size for a Harley-Davidson motorcycle, likely 16-inch or 19-inch given the typical applications for such wire wheels. The overall appearance suggests a classic or vintage Harley-Davidson model from perhaps the 1970s to 1990s, given the style of the wire wheel and tire tread. The craftsmanship of the spoked wheel is indicative of a quality factory or aftermarket component, with uniformly tensioned spokes. No specific maker's marks, beyond the tire branding, are clearly discernible on the hub or rim. The condition appears to be used but well-maintained, with general road grime visible, but no severe defects.
