Default Tire recogmendation.
Picked up a screw in the front tire of my 2017 Ultra limited low. I would love to hear your suggestions on what tire I should go with.

Michelin Commander 3 (touring model). See online reviews. They're claiming 20% improvement in longevity over Commander 2 although his might mean just a harder rubber compound, which might also translate into slightly less traction, just speculating on this aspect.

A friend of mine is shopping for new tires as well and after some research he ordered the Metzeler Cruisetec. They may not last as long as the Commander III but it seem they have great handling performance.
