Sprocket ground clearance

#1
I have a 71 Fox Banshee that came with a welded on rear sprocket to the rim.
The tire size it came with is a 4.10x3.50-6
I cannot make left turns without the chain dragging on the ground and popping off
Would it be best to change the tire to a taller one? I dont have much room; I'm not sure if a 5" wide tire would fit. It may hit the sprocket.
I'll be uploading pictures later.
Thanks in advance!

compared to what came on the rim (OldMiniBikes product number R_5918)I may take the chance it'd be taller. Getting a new rim and sprocket assembly isn't in my budget unfortunately

This one is the same size you have now.

Another vote here for "530x450/6 will more than likely be ok" but you won't know for sure without trying it. How many teeth on that sprocket if I may ask?

54 tooth? that's what I counted
