Default Change tires

Would like to change from Dunlop D402's to something different. E3's would be a good choice but the rear tire won't fit my 07 FLHX what else is there Avon or Meztler looking for better mileage and or handling.
Thanks for your answers.

Why won't the E3 fit? It's a close fit, but several 07 owners run it. iclick is just one off the top of my head.

I'm running the Metzeler 880's on my RK for the wide white wall. I like them much better than the 402's. They track much better and just seem to ignore rain grooves and tar snakes.
