Will front tire 110/90-19 fit on 1979 1000 LTD?

Bridgestone Spitfire 110/90-19 is the tire I ordered and when it arrived today it looked awfully wide. Not sure whether it will fit under my front fender. Currently I have a 3.5 on there (which is approximately 90 wide) and it seems there is only about 15 mm gap on each side....Has anyone with a LTD and stock fender been able to fit a 110 tire? For some reason I thought my current tire was a 4.0 so I thought stepping up to a 110 wouldn't be an issue...Thanks guys

You're correct - the 110 is too wide. The 100/90-19 works best on the stock rim and forks. Ed
