Hi,

So the previous owner has installed this 17" rear wheel with currently 180 width tyres.. ive seen this wheel conversion before on other vmaxxes.
Unfortunately, i dont know what type/model this wheel is, was actually wondering if someone here has the same wheel conversion and if its possible to fit a 190 width tyre on it?

Thanks.

You would need to establish the width of the rim and check with tyre manufacturers what sizes they recommend.
Once you have that the next step would be to ensure that there is sufficient room for the swinging arm to accommodate it.

I have a 180 on a 5 1/2" rim and the clearance is minimal with the washer swap done so IMO any wider would need some surgery to the swinging arm.
How much room is left with your 180?

Could be a Deget conversion. can't make out the writing, but in one of your pics there is a some script in a recess area on the rim close to the bead. I suspect that might have a clue.
