I'm ready for new tires on my 03 flhtci, have 47k miles, always on dunlops & just want better wear.
Any suggestions ?

 

i have metzlers now but i think dunlops do last longer they are made with harder rubber.

 

I prefer the Metzlers on my sporty, even though I have to replace more often. The ME 880's are great in the rain.

 

All I will say is Dunlop E3, 17,000 miles on my rear and its ready for a new one, but I'm sure not putting on anything else.

 

Pirrelli Night Dragons!!!

 

Metzeler all the way.

 

Have Metzler 880's on my 08 and believe they handle better than the Dunlop and seem to wear at least as well. Will stick with Metzler.

 

I love my Metzlers but I don't think they wear as good as Dunlops. But so much better in handling and rain.

 

I was a Metzeler guy for every Touring bike I've owned. I swore I'd never run another Dunlop.

Here on the Forum though several guys recommended the Dunlop E-3's, a tire I'd never heard of....

I run 20,000 miles a year down here. I'm halfway through this year, and only half way through the E-3 tires. Incredible wear, and handling comparable to the Metzelers.

 

Elite 3's...
Better handling and longer life...
