Thanks all.

Update - we purchased an 18" rear and we're happy with the way it looks with the front (less like a chopper, more like a "vintage")

Also - we're modifying the rear brake to disk. If all goes well, it's going to match the front.

At any rate, I'm going to start a build post - (rubber side down?)

Thanks in advance for the tips/guidance.
