Guess after seeing prices and how hard the exact fit is to find, looking for white walls is way out of the picture.
Open to all suggestions, looking for same or better grip and long tire life.

I have had a Dunlop 302gt 180 on my 2007 superglide since first tyre change from new, it is expensive around 300 aussie dollars fitted and I get around 7-8 thousand kilometres out of it it just a straight change over from the 160 wide. The 180 looks heaps more meatier from behind, the 160 looks to skinny as far I am concerned. There are no other different choices here in Australia but as long as you look after the air pressure its all right. The rear tyre on my lowrider 160 wide looks pathetic compared to the 180 on the superglide so I be changing it as soon as the 160 is finished.

Hi,
Yeah 4.5inch same as wide glide rim, the gt502 dunlop (maybe called screamin eagle gt502 from dealr) i reckon is the widest once installed
The pirelli night dragon 180x17 is skinnier, more rounded edge tire and better in twistys, i ran 2 of the gt502 dunlop, good allrounder tire, on second pirelli night dragon getting about same wear, bit disappointed with skinnier profile
May try a 200 night dragon or will go back to gt502 dunlop if still around
Thanks
