Go with Dunlop American Elite. I like them better than the HD dunlop. They do not howl in the curves like the factory tires do. They handle well and are good in the rain

Just put an American Elite on my Road King and was amazed at the difference. Not sure of mileage, and to be fair, the old tire was, well, old!

Either way, I have no arguments with the AE tire on there now. My .0000002
