You should be able to get a 180mm-200mm tire in a 9" wide swingarm. Most sportbikes come with either a 5.5" or 6.0" wide rim that mounts this size tire. Have to find the style rim you like and size you want and look around on E-Bay. Search for a ZX9, GSXR (600,750,1000), CBR, Hayabusa, etc. Different years have different width and styles (spokes slant or straight). Different styles from different bikes. Look at bikes on the street to get an idea what's out there.

Hello, idontknow2, and WELCOME to KZr!
Could also look around on Dunlop's website where overall width is shown for many different tires.

Good Fortune!

I have a polished aluminum (but it needs polished again) 18" x 4.5" Suzuki rear mag wheel that fits a 20mm axle, and I have a ZX11 17" x 5.5" rear wheel for a 20mm axle that has a worn out Shinko 200x17 tire on it. But a 200 tire really needs a 6" rim.
If either of those wheels would help you out, let me know.
