Default Rear tire

I have a 2009 ultra with a 18 inch cvo rim. Can I go from the 180 to a 200 tire with no mods?

I'm not sure if this is the correct answer or not bud, but I think there is an issue with the 200/18 tires on Harleys. It is my understanding that most people go with a 200/55-17 on the back when doing a conversion. Your bike should have the new frame/swing-arm so you can run a 200, but I would continue to do some research before you spill a bunch of cash for a handling problem. Plus, 180 wide tires actually handle better. JMHO
