Default Pulley Issues

How you guys doing today? I've been having an issue with my pulley on my 91 fatboy i did the chrome exhange from chrome pros plating for my pulley and rear wheel. I went to reinstall the pulley and wheel and now the belt is too long and thats with the axle push all the way back and the adjusters maxed out. Plus the belt is rubbing the tire. I was thinking that the pulley was not the right size but havent had time to count the teeth to find out, but would dropping it from a 70 tooth to 65 have this effect if so what would i need to do to fix this issue. If not does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Any help would be great.
