Want to add a bigger rear tire on my '05 NT, what size?
I have an 2005 Night Train. \\; I want to \\;go to a bigger rear tire. \\; At this time I cannot afford the 200 or bigger kits. \\; So my question is....What is the biggest tire I can put on WITHOUT changing the rear swing arm. \\; I can do a different size wheel if needed.
 \\;
I have heard that the biggest is a 180, is this true?
 \\;
Any suggestions would be much appreciated[sm=thanx.gif]

ORIGINAL: back again
 \\;\\\\\\; This is a 160/16 Metzler under my 05. A 170/18 will fit also.

What needed to be done to add that rim and tire?
I am waiting for my 130 stocker to wear out so I can go 150/16
Or the 18" route!
Thanks Mike
