Just out of curiousity, are you asking because you just want the bigger rear tire look? To tell you the truth I wanted to switch myliter rim with a regularsixer rim for "Peformance". Correct me if i'm wrong but I heard that smaller rims allow you to flick the bike faster. I guess that's one of the reason's why sixers are more flickable than the liters and, that's why people say that sixers can beat liters in corners. Anyways to answer your question, I think you can if you switch the swingarms but i'm not a 100% sure.
