Default Need the number for dunlops e3

Ok Guys I know this has been old news but I can use the exact order number for the front and back tire Dunlop E3s for both. looking at the 160 for the back. Going to find some place on line that has them inexpensive but I need to know the model number for thetire. 160/numbers letters has me confused. Putting them on an 08 Ultra classic.
Thanks

Front = MT90B16 - 0305-0046

Rear = 160/80B160- 0308-0011

The MT90-16 is 130mm wide, same size as an OEM front on a '08 dresser. The OEM size on a '08 rear with the MU85-16 is 143mm.... the E3 MU/140 - 16 is essentially the same dimensions as the OEM H-D tire according to the Dunlop Web site. If you're thinkiong about putting anything larger than a 140 on an unmodified rear end you're gonna have problems.

I've been running E3s on a '07 Ultra for 3 years, for a couple of years on an '05 before that. GREAT tire, I've been getting 14k out of the rear, change the front with every other rear. Expecting a '10 in about 5 weeks and hoping Dunlop starts making E3s in those sizes or I'm gonna be an unhappy camper.

Check-out Dennis Kirk's website; plenty of dimensional info on the tires you are considering. Here's the link to the 160/80/16:

http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/tpl/ti...afCatId=&mmyId=

The 160 is about .5" wider and taller than the Elite 3 MU90B16; and, has 1/32" less tread depth according to the DK website information.

The 160 is not an Elite 3 (whatever that may exactly mean, I have no clue). I bought and installed the E3 MU 90 this week on my '04.

Good luck with your research and purchase.
