I have an MU85/16 on my rear on a 2000 king and it is about all you are gonna get under there without mods. An MU is a 140. Go to the Darkside Forum over at Delphi. They have a chart of which tires will fit what.

I have and the 175/r is the best I can come up with. Just trying to verify if it will fit or has anyone used this tire.

Oh, Good luck with the no negative comments, I guess they just can't help themselves. They will be bashing any minute now. Hope you get a quick answer before they start up.
