Default OK Boys ... Tell Me

Rear Tire for my Dresser needs changing. I'll do the swap myself but what should I get? The tire on there now ( Dunlop harley insignia whitewall) is square and getting bald. I want a heavy duty blackwall round rear tire. I'll get a matching front as well as I don't believe in mixing brands/compounds/tread patterns/weight ratings etc. I ran Avon Venoms on my softail and loved them but they can't handle the weight. Suggestions and recommendations are appreciated.
Have a well Shared 1,
Moose

I had a set of Michelin COmmanders on a WG for while. Hated them. Very slippery. I got rid of them quick. Dunlops are OK. I'm a big fan of Avon tires.

Just changed the rear on my Superglide to a Metzler 880. Befor that I went through a seirs of Continentals on my old Sportster. Either one is superior to the stock Dunlop.
