Default "95 FXDWG Tire Recommendations??

I've got to replace a couple tires on my bike. My DWG has a fatboy rim/tire on the front.

I am 220lbs and the wife 125lbs. We do not do any regular long distance cruising, just fair weather riding, maybe an hour one way max or a couple hour tour on a Sunday afternoon.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm not looking for some kind of high performance tire, just something that combines good characteristics for the weight on the bike, good life span, and reasonably priced.

Any favourite skins out therE?

Thanks!

FWIW - I just put Mezeler 888s on my 04WG.. I've used these and the 880s. I love em.. Michelins also seem to be popular here too.. Welcome to the forum!

Fatboy tires? Dunny has a new compound known as "The American" D407/8 IIRC. Not cheap but supposed to last a longtime. There's always the darkside if you want cheap. Check your insurance coverage if you do go to the darkside. Some issues have arisen post crash with car tires on bikes....
