anybody know a good source for ordering wheels

Mornin folks! I bought an '08 Softail Custom last month and I'm ready to get pipes, intake and a tuner, but I'm holding for some advice. I only have 500 miles on the bike, and followed careful break-in procedures. Do I need to wait before installing the performance parts, or can I do it now? I'm looking at V&H Big Radius and the V&H VO2 intake...but also looking for advice on a tuner and whether I should have it dyno'd and properly mapped by a techie. I've read the threads in PCIII over FuelPak, still undecided. So: 1. do I need more miles before modifying? 2. which tuner should I use? 3. should I have it dyno'd and mapped with the pipes and intake installed?

Thanks in advance for your comments.

Abbey, your article in this issue of HOG Tails was great. Grand Prize winner is pretty darn good. You really did do a lot of riding in the time you had. Great Job and congratulations.

I was thumbing through the latest JP cycles wish book and ran across a Vacuum controlled Cruse Control for Pre computer models. Before I jump out and buy one of these thought I'd ask the Fam if anyone has used,seen, fondled,or herd anything about these units.
