OP has a Street Bob, its different. Can't go over a 180mm unless you modify the fender completely, was going to do a 200 but opted for a 180 when I found out what a pain it would be to go that big.

If you want the best grip and wear check out dual compound tires that have a softer rubber compound on the edges (better cornering grip) and a harder compound in the center (longer wear).
One last point, if you take your rim off yourself and take it in to be mounted it is much cheaper.

wide glide has wider rim than street bob,
you need to go to a 5.5" or 6" rim to fit the 200 on the bob.
small mods may or may not be needed for belt or wiring issues.
heaps and heaps of posts here on the forum about 200's search and you will find all you need to know

Just a note:
My 07 Street Bob tires lasted much longer than my
09 Night Train with the 200 on the rear.

Softer compounds are great for riding but don’t last as long.
If that matters anyway.
