A 200 Avon might work with stock pulley. I had chain, so I put on a 20 mm belt and pulley with a Dunlop HD tire, since I had to change pulley anyway. I have about 4 mm of clearance between belt and tire and about 10 mm on the other side. So with the right spacers, a stock belt will fit any 200/55x18 tire.
