On the stock rim they'll look a little bigger but not much bigger than the stock tire, if you're wanting to run a 160 rear tire, you'll need to order one of the Ninja 650R rear wheels and adapter kits. Otherwise you're out of luck.
Actually I think the 160 will not be possible with the stock swing-arm. I'm running a larger than stock wheel with a BT016 150 and I'm pretty close to rubbing the chain and swing-arm.
