Default Deuce 180 tire kit?

Ok, i know this has been asked to death, but one last time.. there are hundreds of kits on the market it seams. some you need a new swingarm, shim, caliper. some you need a wheel, swingarm, caliper no shim. some say you can just install the shim and put the 180 tire with no air then add air after installation. what do i really need to do the job right.

thanks
Tony
