Sorry should have been more specific, I would like to fit a 200 on the back which I have heard is possible with a wider rim. So I am looking for a matching rim for the rear thats 18X5.5 rather than 17X4.5 that matches the stock front rim.
If you're asking if there is a matching tire between the front and back, from the same manufacturer, yes. Check out my sig. I have ME880's on front and back. I highly recommend ignoring the 80 width and go with the 90 width in the front. I couldn't believe the different in stability!

So I'll add up some pix since I've changed a few things.
So ... made a round ac cover out of shelving steel, primed, paint, airbrushed and cleared it ... no expert just having fun.
Took the oem levers grinded the round tip and drilled some holes primed, paint and cleared it ...
Took some car paint and a brush and blackened the ugly *** grey bolts
New Pirelli night dragons 90.90.21, 180.60.17
Took some car paint mixed some color to get close to the flaming colors and the brush and highlighted the tires....
Made an homemade upsweep exhaust with a funny sound ... had to take it off my wield leaked and the high temp gloss black didnt hold, still in the making ...
Cutted the fender, removed the tail light bought a bitch pad etc.

Any problem going with 90/90/21 with stock front wheel?

Nope... Perfect tire for the wheel size. I'm not sure why Harley didn't go with a 90 out the door! You'd be amazed at the stability and ride quality just that little bit of rubber adds.
Do it, you won't regret it!

I saw in some other thread that RideWright Wheels has a 18x5.5 that looked like the OEM in design. It "looked" like it, I don't know if it matches exactly.
