Default 15 tooth front sprocket fit?

Right now im running 13/48 and its great for around town and for the trails we have around here. I am looking for a combo thats a little more street friendly though for the long hauls. I was wondering if anyone had a 15t sprocket on the front and if it still fit with the metal chain guard? That ratio will be perfect for the 55-60 MPH cruising I plan on doing soon.
Thanks
Josh

The 15t fits under the plastic gaurd but, not the metal gaurd.

Josh- I put my street wheel set back on and put the 15t sprocket back on with the metal gaurd.

I thought I would look at how much metal I would have to remove on the metal gaurd to get it to fit over the 15t and it actually fits without modification.

It is VERY close though maybe 1/16" of an inch away from the rollers...I wonder if the chain will hit being that close?

Sorry for the multiple posts, if I post more than two lines I get an error and it won't let me post.
