Talking about the wire black wheels. Shows different part number. Both 16" and I think both the same 3" width. Anyone? Different spoke count?

And a followup question . . how do I get a dual front disc wheel that is also 16 x 3, wire spoke, like a 48 wheel? I know the Nightster front wheel can be modified for dual disc, I did it on mine. The hub can be drilled, it's on my Roadster. Do I need another Nightster hub, but lace it to a 16" rim? Any other options? I'm building my second Roadster and I want the Forty Eight type wheels/look. I have the Midglide triple tree.

I think the difference in the Nightster and Forty eight rear wheel is the hub color. The Nightster's is black.
