Default 240 rear tire with just swingarm/primary space only??

I just got off of Carlini's website, and there is an interesting pic of a 2007 Softail, with factory bobbed fender and strut covers (Night Train) with PM wheels, and Phatail swingarm, and what is obviously a 240 rear tire(its in the photos, at the back of the 1.5 Carlini Clean Sweep photos, number 34). By appearances its ridden this way, and works? It doesnt look lowered much, if at all, but looks good. Has anyone else done this, that tire really fills that fender, it looks great. Thinkin hmmmmmmm.................a 240 on a new rim could be in my future if I can afford a swingarm and small primary spacer...........
