I purchased front and rear Metzler ME 880s from my indy, for my Road King. Cost me $340 mounted and balanced and that was with wheels on the bike.

Amsoil, its a much shorter drive to pick up a couple quarts of Amsoil than it would be to go to a Harley dealer anyhow....

I love how oil prices drive up everything, oil goes up people switch to ethnol, which drives up corn prices, so people plant more corn, less veggies, so then veggies go up, and oil went up so it still costs me 300 bucks for a weeks worth of groceries. But BP still turns a huge profit, weird.

Amen to Amsoil.
I'm new to the Ultra, but by the time i wear out the OEM rubber, I will have long researched a rear car tire and more than likely go with one.
A fraction of the cost of a MC tire and many run them safely up to 30,000 40,000 miles. A no brainer.

Not for an '08 you won't. Unless of course you have made several mods to your bike to accept a 185/195mm tire.
