Looking at a Goodyear Triple Tread 205/60-16 or would 205/55-16 be better fit OR General Altimax HP 205/60-16 and lastly General GMax AS-03 205/55-16...I am leaning toward The Triple Tread 205/60-16,, just do not know about fitment, Have not seen these size discussed much. Tire will be going on a 2014 FLHXS with 16oz of RideON. Any help is appreciated,, Thank You

 

I have the General G-Max and I like it. Handles pretty good, even in wet conditions. Can't help you on fitment. I ride a Fatboy.

 

If this is your first car tire, I would recommend against the Goodyear TT. They are ridiculously long lasting, but I would try a more motorcycle like handling tire. I haven't tried the G-Max, but from what I've read, it is a better handling tire than the TT.


I run the Michelin Alpin and really like the way it handles. I've got close to 17K on it and it is wearing well.


Good luck with your choice.

 

Thanks 08fatty and rkoivisto for your input , it is appreciated,, I was leaning toward the TT since we run about 18,000 miles a year ,,decision , decisions, lol ! Will put some my thought into it and look at the gmax and altimax , thanks agin

 

This is the one I will start with ,, 195/60R16 Yokohama AVID Ascend, and go from there .

 

you are doing well by going with a 195. Most people want to go as wide as possible, but the 195 will handle better.

 

Yes I thought I seem a thread you talked about the 195 , so figured there was a reason,, so I start there for my first one !

 

Got the Yokohama mounted ans installed this evening. And then the rain showed up. Try tomorrow to get some moles on it....not sure why pic is sideways

OK Guys, I'm getting ready to mount one of these on my extra rim. Still run the same pressure? And is there any lean or break in info y'all can give us? 110 dollars at tire rack for the yokohama. Gonna check with my tire guy and see if its any better.
