Replaced my 19" rim with a 2019 Ultra classic 17" Impeller rim because I wanted a bigger tire. Installed ABS bearings and the tire sits too close to the left fork. What am I missing for it to be spaced right? I was told it was a direct replacement. It looks to be about 1/4" off center towards the speed sensor side

I just did the same swap....I had the 19" Enforcer stock rim and just replaced it with the 17" Impeller rim on my 2016 Street Glide Special. Some bikes have abs and some don't. Make sure you are using the right bearings. Mine swapped out without a hitch. I did replace the bearings with new since it was apart. I also used new rotor hardware.
Smart idea extricator. New bearings and Rotor bolts/hardware highly recommended anytime you're changing front wheels.
