Need Help With Tire Size Dunlop E3's

Getting ready to buy a set of Dunlop E3's....Can anyone tell me what the model number Dunlop E3 they brought for the front and rear? I have a 08 FLHX with a 2010 stock FLHX front wheel that is 18 inch front and 16 inch rear. I'm ordering from Jake Wilson. I think the rear tire is MU90B16 and their order # is 1200490003. I hope I have the rear correct..Now I need the front tire model number. Jake Wilson is having a great deal on tires...also when ordering 2 tires you get $10.00 off and use code JW009 and recieve a additional $20.00 off.

I used an MT90B16 front and MU90B16 rear, but I have a stock wheel on my 08.

Don't try to match a catalog or non proprietary part number based on what someone else bought. For a fact, some tires appear to be the correct size but don't carry the proper weight rating for your model bike. The "T" and "U" as described above are actually widths for a particular tire. You are going to want the same size tire that you have now. What is on your tire sidewalls now? Start with Dunlop's web site and look specifically at Elite 3's. Match up to what you have now. Don't order online-call directly. You will get the same discounts, etc but are much more likely to get the correct tire. Don't even consider a tire that doesn't have the correct weight rating.

If you have trouble finding the tire you need on J Wilsons web site, call them!! They don't always list all their tire sizes!! They do have great deals....This deal (JW009)has been running for a long time. My tires were delivered in two days!!! Also get Dyna Beads at the same time from them..save on shipping!!!!!
