Well it is time once again, it is time to change out tires. I want to stay with white walls. So, is there a better white wall tire out there than the Harely Dunlop? That is what I replaced them with last time. I would like your opinion on different brands. Thanks.

 

Metzler or Avon out perform the dunlop, I've been running Avon and love the look and grip, however I just had a front tire start to separate on me, I'm doing a search now to see if it is an isolated situation or if they are having quality issues, will let you know

 

The Metzler is a harder tire, so it will get good tread life. The Avon is a soft compound and handles a bit better. Depends on your style of riding.

 

Ain't nothing wrong with the Dunlops from what I can tell. I've ridden 79k using 'em on my personal bike and an unknown number of miles on a work bike. No complaints at all as far as wet or dry riding goes or mileage life.

 

I tried a Michelin Commander once and got 4,000 less miles then the Dunlop. Stick with the Dunlop.

 

my riding buddy had avons on his street glide had to replace one at 5000 miles.....we both put about 2.5k a month on our bikes.....5k is too soon
