Anybody know if a 210/50-VR17 tire will fit on a 2008 Softail Custom that currently has a 200/55-VR17? I need to replace the factory rear and would like to use a Metzeler 880 Marathon to match my 120/70-21VR front tire that I just put on with a new 3 1/4" wide 21" wheel. My main concern is the clearance between the wide point of the tire and the belt. There is currently 3/8" of clearance.

When converting metric to english you divide by 25.4
200mm = 7.874"
210mm = 8.258"
