Probably could. Some folks have gone to 170 tire on rear and it fit easily. The question is whether you'd have any more luck finding a better tire given a 5" rim. And if you're going to start looking for new rims, why not just go for an 18 x 2.75 rear and 21 x 185 front rim and open up the whole range of dirt tires?

Unless you were asking for another reason... :wink:
