Default 150 Rear Tire On A Streetglide

Looking at going "fatter" on my 08 SG rear tire. I want to keep the frame & fenders stock. I've heard a 150 will work, any input please.

150 no problem -- like he said 160 you will need a wider rim but it will fit--the stock fender will accept a 180---

I'm running a 150 with no problem. I did trim the belt guard in one spot because it look close but doubt it really needed it.

150 -- any wider you will have to go to a 4 or 4.25 rim

I did a 150 402 harley dunlop on my 08 SG. It fits fine on the 16" wheel and fits fine with the factory fender. Looks great too.

I went to a 150 in the rear of my 07 Ultra, no problems.
