Some have fit a 160 Metzeler rear tire on the stock setup. Do a search and you will find threads on this. Unless you have longer shocks than the stock Nightster shocks, then you might have issues with the tire hitting the wires on the underside of the fender. If you have $$ to spend then there are a few companies out there that make wide tire kits but you will have to replace the swingarm, fender and rear wheel to make it all work.
