Default 06 Streetbob - Wide Front Tyre

I want to put a wide tyre on the front of my Bob - how wide can i go, can I put my back wheel in the front with a 160 or 180 on it. What mods would i have to do? Any one got any photos with this type of mod.

stock rim you can only rock a 120... 130 is pushing it... to move the rear up front... you are going to have to ditch the front fender but you should be able to lace the back ring to the front hub
