Tire aspect ratio on 200mm?
For those of you with 200's on the rear, what aspect ratio are you guys running?
Ordering up new rims for my '13 wide glide.
18x5.5 rear, so I wanna go with Metzeler ME880 200/50R18.
i have burly shocks on the rear and just wanna make sure i have enough clearance and travel without any issues.

Im running a 200/55/18 Avon Cobra with a WG rear fender on my Fat Bob. The only issue I ever had when running Burlys was going 2 up with the chopped fender edge tail light. It would rub on hard bumps. But a 200/50 has even less sidewall so with the smaller overall diameter I think you'll be ok. And if you aren't running the tail light like me, you shouldn't have any issues at all.
