As has been mentioned before Suzuki back wheels are generally thinner across the hub so a 4.5 Suzuki wheel is your bet bet with a 160 tyre, you still need to get an offset sprocket though, and you may need to get an arm as I think it may be too wide for the standard one. There's a Suzuki one that will take the wheel and fit, don't know what it's out of though, I've only seen it in Zeds rather than it's original home. The matching front wheel should fit too with a 120 in the standard forks but it's a tight squeeze for the speedo drive. You'll need discs, calipers, and plates for the calipers. A 98/99 ZX6 wheel will fit the front too but looks slightly different to the Suzuki rear.
