I was always buy my tires from Motorcycle Superstore, but Dunlops would be my last choice, just my opinion.

Got 10,000 miles on the front one and can go a little more, but want new before too long. Open to suggestions, just want white walls.

You talking Cruisemax White Walls?

I like mine, but am going Car Tire when I swap to cast rims, shortly.

Dunno a good place to get them anymore, my local place says they can't get small batch deals anymore and are leaving tire selling to others.

If you go with Dunlap I would suggest the E3's. Just stay away from the D-404's. They don't last but about 5000 miles and they are shot, or at least the ones I had did. JMHO.

404's are the Walmart tennis shoes of tires. The Cruismax has a great reputation for handling and durability. The 402 and Elite III are both good tires. Metzeler makes a good whitewall in the ME880. Look at Jake Wilson.com and americanmototire.com for decent deals on tires.

Just got a promo E-mail from Dennis Kirk. They have low price guarantee and free shipping over 100 bucks and Metzelers on sale right now.

Here is about as cheap as you will find on the Cruisemax rear, I switched from the Cruisemax to the Michelin Commander II because of the short life I get out of rears.

I used to buy from Chapparal often, but they got kind of non-competitive for a while. Guess I'll have to go back and check them out. That's a pretty decent price. I'll be looking for Commander II's before too long.
