that can depend on how worn the chain is , some thing that can be done to get more adjustment is make the slots longer on the swingarm

no need to mess with the chain or slot the adjt. should be plenty of room.put the new sproket on and go riding.

replace your chain. I am running 22/11/9 maxxis razers on mine with a 13 tooth sproket. all went together just fine. get a new chain.
