Default Widest Front Tire?

Guys, I'm trying to find out what is the widest front tire I can fit on my stock rim. No front fender, so that is not a concern. What's the widest any of you have fit?
Thanks, Robbie

Does'nt that 120 end up just 110 wide 'cos it's pinched on the rim ? The 120 tire is for 3.00 to 3.50 rim ...
