From what I've seen it's possible, but it won't just bolt up... you'd have to do a lot of work to get it on there. I've been wanting to get something fatter than the sad 130 on the back, but haven't found any relatively simple options yet

There are guys who have gone as wide as 150 with no rub.

Ski-line, did you keep the 80% Aspect Ratio? Or did you go down to a 70% to get as close to the factory overall diameter?

my f1 has a 160 with about a half inch of room on each side. (previous owner) when i get new tires im probly going for a 150. seems like 1 160 is steeper on the sides due to the narrower rim. right?
