a 200 will fit, but it won't handle as well. Squeezing a wider tire on the rear rim will tend to "square" the tire. If it were me (I like the turns) I'd find a suitable 180 and be happy.

id get a 180 190 max imo you can get a nice 180/190 for less than a 200 also if money is tight look into the shinko podiums i ran them for a while and they are very nice tires
