Default Elite III's or Michelin Commanders

Up for a new front tire and looking at these two tires to replace the stock Dlops. Run Metz's on my Dyna but want a little longer tread life on the SG.

Anybody run both of these? If so what are your opinions?

I have ran 2 set's of Elite 3 dunlop's,these are the advantages-1-better mileage,15,000 on rear,28,671 on front.2 Fantastic rain tire,give's great road feel when wet.3-on rough road extra tough ply takes some of the shock out of the road.4-on gravel your front wheel won't "pop' out from under you unless your being really stupid,and going really fast.5-when riding on gratting on bridges and such front end wondering eliminated.Best tire I have ever had[&:]

I agree with Buck. I have not complaints on the E3's.
