Default Bandit rear wheel - too tight?

Hi I posted here before cos for a while I been thinking of putting the bandit wheel to fit a 180 tyre. I have seen some pics on here of people who have done it and it looks very good, but one concern I have is that everything looks tight.

How much gap do you get between the chain and tyre when you fit the 180 tyre? cos when I look at the current gap with my 160 tyre, there is not much clearance, so I am worried that even if the chain slacks even very slightly it could rub against the tyre.

I am saying this also cos I assume the sprocket position will remain the same even with the bandit wheel. THis needs to be the same cos it depends on the front sprocket position, right?

Does anyone who has fitted the bandit wheel have any close ups of clearance with tyre and chain? That would be great if you could put one (or two) up. I really wanna convince myself that it can be fitted properly but not too sure at the minute...
