    I was thinking about putting a wide tire on the back of my deuce but I think I will wait awhile. I was wondering, what is the fattest tire I can put on with the standard setup?
    Thanks

    Angle of the fender on a duece

    Since the downward angle of the duece fender is not a downward as the bobtail. i had a friend get a 200. He had to deflate the tire after it was on the rim. He did file down some stuff but now it looks sweet.

    Hey, thanks for the responses. I may look real hard at that 200 and a file.

    Thanks
