Default Shinko 777 vs Dunlop Cruisemax?

There's a $100 difference for a set of either of these. Are the Dunlops better and last longer?

Pros/cons?

Shinko has a long history of tread delamination and several tire series redesigned for delam and it continues to occur on the updated tires. Shinko has no customer service contacts by internet or phone, they all dead end. These tires have a long history of being junk on the heavier bikes. When it comes to tires, I don't think it is ever a good practice to save $50 on a tire and sacrifice anything. Right now the market looks like the Metz 888, the Michelin Comander II's and the Dunlop Elite 3"s are at the forefront of value, to incl safety, mileage and capacity.
