Default Big rear tire kits available?

I have a 83 Sportster and was wondering if it is possible to go to a bigger rear tire... a big wide fatty? Do they make kits?

Thanks,
Hawk

Try here for a fat tire kit, http://www.cas4.com/Wide-Tire/230-xl-kit-03.htm they don't list for an 83 but you never know.
