I see a lot of guys recommend the MU90B16 for the rear. The OEM tire on my '08 FLHP is the MT - just like the front. I guess my instincts are to stay with the original size tire, just in case there is a problem later. I know there is only about 1/2 inch difference in the width. Does the wider tire really perform any better? Has anyone had a problem with the MU tire rubbing?

The MT is the 130 so it depends on what your bike came with. My 05 RK came with 140 rear, 130 front. I don't know if it handles any better, but sure fills the gap, tougher look IMO.

Thanks for the part number Dawg, guess i'll have to double check to see what is on my bike, but if the 140 rear would fit, them i'm all for a slightly wider rear (tire that is)

My last purchase was DennisKirk.com, and they were like $210.00 for both to the door. Prior to that I went with RonAyers.com. Very close, and free shipping. Just shop the net and go with the lowest price. I'm on my third set, great tires.
