But a guy you might know Ivan, uses the 18" wheels all the time in his R1100GS without a problem :D

The 18" does make all the difference when it comes to off road traction IMHO.

He tried to keep the stock hight and gain as much travel as posible.

I think you are right on the length but with the ratio of that TAG swing arm the spring rate needs to be at least 80 N/mm or more.
