Default 2000 to 2002 ST widest tire

What is the widest rear tire you can put on a 2000 to 2002 FXST without changing the swing arm and fender?

Thanks

I have a 150 on my 2002 fatboy. Just had to grind down the end of the strut bolts. Of course I have no idea about an fxst.

i have seen guys on here cram a 200 on with the stock swingarm and belt, thinking about it myself

i think baldman has a 300 on his night train from using a kit

i'm pretty sure though anything larger than 250 you wanna go right side drive as the primary gets moved out too far

2002 Custom Fatboy

Still working on the fender, because what I want you can't buy anywhere.

200 Avon, stock swingarm, stock caliper, stock belt.
