If the swingarm wasnt cut out, I think the tire would be really close if not touching.
Id recomend the cut out with a setup like this.

Quick update: Matt from
techsupport@buchananspokes.com
came back to me with a very promising reply.
"We can lace and true a 17” rim with your hub. You can simply send in your hub with a packing slip with your contact information and which rim you would like."
So... decided on following:
17'x2.75 36 hole rim. Should be able to take the Continental Twinduro TKC80 150/70 x 17 no problem.
Next steps.
1) Receive rear hub.
2) Ship rear hub to Buchanan
3) Let the pros do their magic
4) Let the pros ship my new laced wheel back to the Middle East (forgot to mention that's where I'm at currently
5) Order tires.
6) Build bike...
7) Fit tires
8) Ride.
Will keep you posted

The folks at Buchanan's are great. They really are genuinely interested in helping you, and providing either the parts you need to build your own wheel, or to build a wheel for you.
