100/90/19 and 130/80/17 tires on a steamer?

Stock fitment for the steamer is 110/80/19 and 140/18/17.  I'm wondering if I could use a set of Scrambler takeoffs (Trailwings) on my tiger.  Any thoughts?

The 130/80 will definitely fit...that's the size TKC that I run.



Calculations for the front look good, although I can't remember what the rim width is right now.



110/80-19 is 25.9"x4.3".

100/90-19 is 26.1"x3.9".



There must be at least .2" of clearance for the front fender...



I'm not sure who 'Dan' is, but this is the chart I go by when messing with tire sizes:  http://www.dansmc.com/rimwidth.htm



And this is where I did the metric conversions:  http://www.redrock4x4.com/tech/tire_calc.php

Thanks mudhen, you're a fountain of steamer knowledge as usual.
