The newer ones have really improved
I am on my second set of Commander 3’s on my 2017 Road Glide Ultra. The first set I put on were noisy and had balance issues. We later found them to be out of round, but they really helped the handling. It made the bike a lot quicker to turn than the factory Dunlops. When I wore the first set out, I got a new set and these were very smooth. It made my bike feel brand new all over again. I will buy these again, and would recommend them to anyone!

Not Empressed
They have a lot of vibration compared to the commander 2s especially in the front. I know take it a dealer and have them inspect the bike. I never had this problem until I put these tires on. They are properly mounted, balanced and inflated. The bike has beened checked and checked again. Why do you not comment on some of the reviews where they took the bike to a dealer or changed tires and problem went away? I think it is a poor design. I will be going back to the commander 2s. Don't waste the extra money! Longevity: Good Grip: Ok Stability: Poor Traction: Ok Wear: Good
