Default Michelin Commander II

Anybody have any luck with these tires? I bought a set today on Dennis Kirk for $288 shipped including new Michelin tubes. Have already run Stock Dunnies, Aftermarket Dunnies and Metz 880s in that order... figured I'd try these this time.

FYI in reverse order from last to first...
The Metz's lasted 7K
The 2nd set of Dunnies lasted 10K
and the stock Dunnies lasted 7500.

So far I liked the performance of the Metz's the bestest.

My stock rear michelin scorcher is toast after 8000 miles. Someone posted the other day that their metz 880 was still looking really good after 6K.
I'm still wondering which tire to go with next
