I’ve been riding for 56 years, dirt, sport, now cruiser bikes. I can honestly say the Commander III Cruiser tires I’ve had on two other bikes and currently the two I own, Kawasaki Vulcan Drifter and Yamaha Stratoliner, are the best wet/ dry traction/ handling and long wearing tires I’ve ever had. They improved the handling of every bike I’ve had them on. You can’t go wrong with Commander III’s !!!

Best cruiser tire ever!
