Cool Rear tyre for Deuce

Hi to you all........was wondering if anyone can give me some info / clarification as to whether a 180 wide tyre will fit my '04 Deuce wheel, without any modifications or problems with the tyre hitting the belt or rear fender.

Some people have said it will fit straight on, without any mods or probs.....others have said i might need a spacer kit for the rear pulley??

Some "enlightenment"would be much appreciated

I have a 180 on my 07 Deuce with no problems and no mods. I used a Screaming Eagle version. It came close to the bottom belt guard, however, it did not hit.
