Default Glide Tires

2010 FLHTC, 18,600, replaced front and rear, both had some life left but getting to the edge...did a lot of shopping...Harley or Dunlop has limited sale of the 407/408 to Harley stores....but Dunlop has released "American Elite" with identical specs (slightly different tread pattern, black wall only). $100 less than lowest dealer quote for the 407/408. 600 miles on them and they are just fine...haven't have a rain experience yet...info fo da bros..
