I've got the Metzler 160 on the rear of my '05. Fits just fine and looks good too! It's a Metzler recommended upgrade. Running a fat front, 150/80, so can't help out on that one.

Other than the larger, hollow axle, there is no difference up front between your '05 and my '08 NT. The 90/90-21 is np... and I even have a closer fitting cutom fender.
