Default Who has a Michelin Commander II 200 rear tire?

I have the MCII being shipped to me to replace a Metz 880 200 rear tire. I've read where the MC may rub the belt or may not. I know that with the Metz, the tech had to "bend a bracket" a pinch to avoid rubbing. Is the MC II wider than the Metz 880?

I had no issues with the Metz. The Michelin was a tight squeeze. I had one that I was able to align just right and it had a c-hair before it would rub. The other rubbed no matter what.

Belt rub or what? The Metz was tight fit for me, just don't want the MC any tighter.
