I think I've seen where someone on here went from a stock 130 to a 150 on the front and from the stock 180 rear to a 200 on the rear. Both on stock rims.

Rear is 180/55x18, Front is 130/70x18, per parts lookup. Dealer close by has a FB with them installed. They look awesome IMO

Just purchased the new 888 Marathon ultra for the front (regular size). Unfortunately they don't have it yet for the FXDF rear wheel size. I put on the Metzeler ME 880 in 200/60 R16. They should fit on the stock wheels without any modification. When I'm allowed to upload pics (I'm new here), I'll show you how it looks in comparison to the 180. To be honest, I don't expect any difference in riding because of those 20 millimeters, but I'll let you know.
