Default Dunlop Elite 3's on a 2007?

Anyone know if the new Dunlop Elite 3's will fit a 2007 touring bike?

Front is MT90B16 72H Exact same number as OEM tire.
Rear should be MU90B16 78H, there is a small difference in diameter and width compared to OEM.

OEM front for 08 is MT90B16 72H
OEM rear for 08 is MU85B16 77H

I'm a bit confused because the last two posts have two completely different sizes on the front and rear. The '07 Police Electraglide should have the same size rims as my '07 Street Glide, correct?

The other post lists metric sizes for 08's, but I thought the 07's had the same size rim as the 08's.

I'd prefer the wider of the two that would fit my '07 SG. Can anyone settle this?

I have had 2 on the rear of my 07 Ultra, and 1 on the front. I am very pleased with the tire.

That's great. Sizes would help.

They are. The poster with the police bike had larger than stock tires installed on it.

If you want the closest to OEM sizes in the Elite 3 series, then nocarb has provided the current information.

I'm getting ready to have a MU90B16 Elite 3 mounted on the rear of my '08 FLHT.

That makes more sense. Thank you for clarifying.
