The wheel is 06 GSXR, as is the Front end of the bike. I didnt know if they swapped out the swing arm when they did the wheel
 
What bike do you have? I would guess that they may have had to change the swing arm to add the upgraded wheel and fatter tire.
 
It looks to be an 1100 swingarm. If so, I do know that a 150 size tire is a wide as will fit that arm though. A 150 tire will leave about 1/4" clearance on each side to the swingarm. If the tire is bigger than that, it is not an 1100 arm.
