Default 21" Metzler or Commander

Getting seriously close to "pulling the trigger" on 21" rims and tires. Ive decided on the rims, but looking for opinions on what brand tire. What have you guys used and what do you like?

Thanks
Scott

I've run the Metzler's on my Wideglide and now on my Electra. Very happy with them.

I just had a 21" PM wheel combo put on my bike at BBBQ this past September. It came with the Metzs. I can't complain about it at all at this time. Wondering what kind of mileage I will get out of it, but only time will tell that. Had been running the commanders before that. (still have it on the back). Will wait till time to replace to decide which I will go back with for the next one. Which makes me very interested on any more comments you get on this post.

I have Metz's on mine with a 21" on the front. Just a tip, they say some tires are higher in the middle than others and will create problems with the stock fender. I didn't have to do anything (drill the fender holes) on mine and no problem. However I have since switched to a Klock Werks Wrapper and really like how it shows that 21" rim.
