I know we ar talking about the commander lll s but I have the commander lls and there are absolutely no little michelen markings of any kind on my tires. What am I missing? I have looked for these markings time after time and there is nothing, front or rear
I haven't looked at a Michelin Commander II in quite awhile... so I have no specific memories of them or if they have wear symbols and/or wear indicators...
Just looking at the Commander IIs on the Michelin web site, they have only one view I could find. The view doesn't lend itself to look closely for symbols on the tire, marking where the wear indicators are, but there does appear to be wear indicators in the treads... I don't see as many around the tire as the Commander IIIs have, but in this one pic, I think I see one wear indicator on each of the front & back tires... I marked them with arrows... maybe you could look in these spots/treads on your tires, and report back. I would think they would have two sets at 180° apart at minimum... but it is possible they only have them in one spot...
Wow.. If I'm reading these wear marks correctly, I've still got quite a few miles left on these bad boys. Commander III's rear at 9700 miles.. looks like I still have 2 or 3 k left. This is on a 2008 Heritage classic. I ride easy (at 71, I need to keep it easy lol)
