Default Softail Slim 200 Conversion

I currently have a 2013 Softail Slim which I purchased in July and now want to change things up. I'm looking to convert the back to a 200mm wide.

From what I've been seeing I need to look for a Crossbones rear wheel for this. (black)

If anyone out there has one that would be a great way to start 2021!

Default FLS Slim 200mm conversion

I have a 15 Slim looking to convert my rear wheel to a stock 17x6 cross bones wheel.
Any issues I may run into?
I have been looking around for 2 weeks but cant seem to locate a used one anywhere
can anyone help? Or should I just look into a new one?
