What is the widest tire that will fit a 2001 Softail Standard OEM rear rim?

The 2001 Softail Standard came equipped with a 15-inch chrome spoke rear rim with a width of 2.15 inches. The OEM tire size is 130/90B-15.

Given this information, the widest tire that can be installed is a 140/90B-15, taking into consideration the rim width and tire size recommendations for safety. This can be done without any major modifications to the bike.

However, before installing any tire other than the OEM size, it is advisable to check the manufacturer's recommendations for any potential fitment and clearance issues to ensure safe riding.
