Absolutely AMAZING tires! I ride a 2015 Harley Ultra Limited Low and I just came off of the Commander IIs after 15k miles. I decided to upgrade to the Commander IIIs because the Commander IIs were getting harder to find. I spent a lot of time reading every article I could find about the IIs and did the same thing to research the IIIs. The first day out my wife and I rode 325 miles to the Hocking Hills area of southern Ohio. I love the twisties and OH664 and OH374 don't disappoint. We had a great ride, the tires handled beautifully! My wife commented after the ride how much more comfortable these tires were from the Commander IIs. The commander IIs had a flat contact patch and the IIIs are fully round. When cornering on the IIs, you could feel the transition point at ... MoreAbsolutely AMAZING tires!

The commander IIs had a flat contact patch and the IIIs are fully round. When cornering on the IIs, you could feel the transition point at the edge of the contact patch, but the IIIs are smoother in the corners without the transition point. I will warn you, this difference makes the bike handle differently. It is a lot more agile and freer when getting into the corners. I am 3k miles into this set of tires and am used to the cornering abilities now and I love these tires!

Rode these on my 09 street glide, jnstalled in 2021. Bad vibration from day 1 to the last day, feels like engine vibration all the way up to the grips amd even distorts the mirrors, but only while riding straight up. As soon as I leaned a bit in turns, smooth as glass; straightened back up, solid virbation. This was about a year ago, I swapped to Metzlers and had ZERO issues with the tires riding straight. No vibrations on Metzlers at all. Rode a friend's bike with newer commander III, still has the plaguing vibration issue. Must be Michellin's center compound, cause it's causing my hands to go numb just from the vibration. Not to mention, it burned my fender back in 2021 cause it's a taller profile tire. Check fitment before running it down the road or you'll wind ... MoreRode these on my 09 street glide, jnstalled in 2021.

Lastly, I worked in a shop for a bit. Too many people came in for the Commander IIIs and then turned right back around a week later and had them swapped due to vibration. This is not just a "lot" of bad tires, this is an entire design flaw that must be fixed Michellin.

Those reviews you read about a buzz/vibration/whirr when the tire is running on center? Every single one of them is true. As soon as you lean off center the tire is sticky and smooth, but when you stand back up it goes right back to buzzing and you feel it in the bars on a Goldwing. The problem is the tread siping as the sound becomes more pronounced when heavily front tire braking. I love Michelin but I absolutely cannot stand this tire. I've got 6800 miles on it now and it's starting to get close to the wear bars. It might make it to the 8500 miles the previous factory Dunflop did. The Dunflop invoked a horribly annoying bar wobble whereas this Michelin buzzes horribly on center. Hopefully I'll find a tire that just rides true without wobbling or vibrating, ... MoreThose reviews you read about a buzz/vibration/whirr when the tire is running on center?

For my 06 FXSTS springer I bought commander III's for front and rear, because I couldn't get my rear tire size in the commander II's!When installed, I immediately noticed a buzz/vibration in tires, at speeds above 40 miles per hour!!! Never had this problem with commander II's! I first thought I had bad wheel bearing! Replaced bears made no difference!! I was stumped! Installed the commander III's on my 07 FXSTSSE springer and immediately noticed the same annoying problems with the tires! Buzzing/vibrating! Feel in my hands!!I have run commander II's for many years! Never felt this!! I wont never buy commander III's again!! Hate them!!! DO NOT BUY!
I know a few people and myself that have the same complaint that I most commonly read in reviews, "Very noisy with bad vibrations". I don't get it, supposedly Michelin has been a leading tire manufacturer over the years, so I had decided to give them a try by having the commander II's installed on my Softail. I was quite happy for the most part. When I got my '15 Street Glide I had the Commander III's installed resulting in road noise and vibration. I bought them online from a supplier and had local shop install them. Because I did not purchase them through the local shop they would not cover warranty. I then immediately bought another round for my bike just to get issue taken care of quickly. Needless to say, same problems plus I'm out a whole wad of cash at this ... MoreI know a few people and myself that have the same complaint that I most commonly read in reviews, "Very noisy with bad vibrations".

I then immediately bought another round for my bike just to get issue taken care of quickly. Needless to say, same problems plus I'm out a whole wad of cash at this point and as we all know install costs for m-cycle tires can get VERY costly. After nearly several thousand miles on Florida roads the humming noise & vibration is nearly gone. I use a 180/65 16 for rear tire and I can firmly say that they suck for wet roads, they also do NOT provide a smooth ride while taking steep angled turns on dry roads @ normal highway speeds of 45 - 55 mph as it feels like your rear tire is just about to enter the "Infamous Death Wobble". Please note that I keep my tires at manufacturer recommended psi, and I have Legend Revo A shocks on rear, which I'm happy with, the preload / SAG of shocks are set to the manufacturer's recommendation. I will NEVER use Michelin products on any of my vehicles ever again. In my honest and truthful opinion of the aforementioned.....BUYER BEWARE
To begin, I hope this helps someone on the fence about these tires. I'm certainly glad I've purchased a set of Commander III's.I own a 2016 Street Glide, and over the years I've run both HD and Dunlop tires (same compounds, just different tread patterns). Being a creature of habit, and not one for change, I've shied away from any other brands. Many of my friends had made the switch, and were very happy, but I remained loyal to the HDs.I almost purchased a set of Commander II series tires the last time around and became skeptical after hearing rumors of warbling with Commander III. Nevertheless, I decided to take a chance after owning a set of Michelin truck tires and being extremely happy!I love them! Sticky to the road, great ride, very stable.

I'm more comfortable in tight turns, and honestly, it completely changed the feel of my bike-for the better!I have no regrets, other than I wish I'd purchased them sooner. Go for it!
I bought these for my 2016 street glide. They feel more motorcycle tire as the dulops seem to be more car tire. These seem more of a round edge feel as the Dunlops had a more square feel. With that being said these are definitely a better track tire and I don't feel as stabile. I feel loose but not slippery loose just not as square stable. I love the tires though I feel the benefits are lost on the touring type bike. But I have less than 100 miles on them so this is just first impressions.
Had front and rear tires installed on my bike 23 July 2024. They are the ones that were made after 2022. I rode from Pa to Daytona Fl, down to the southern tip of Key West back up the state into Ga and then on through 13 other states to include riding through Hurricane Debbie while riding through Florida. This trip also included going into Canada and then on to Homer Alaska and then back to Pa. Round trip was over 16,000 miles in roughly 22 days. The only issue I have had to this point is with the front tire. It is feathering. No issues with vibration and the rear tire is still going strong. I rode through many different temperatures in a single day. Rode some roads that my Road Glide def shouldn't have been on. I had no problems or ever felt concerned. I have been ... MoreHad front and rear tires installed on my bike 23 July 2024. They are the ones that were made after 2022.

I have been impressed with these tires. I would like to know what caused the front tire to start feathering...
I replaced my Michelin Commander II with the newer design Commander III tire. I tell you what!I didn't think there would be a longer lasting tire than the Commander II tire. I WAS WRONG! The Commander III tire has already past the milage I got from the Commander II. It'll be time to replace it not too long into the future but I believe I probably have about 5000 miles left. I ride EXTREMELY hard. KUDOS to Michelin for developing such an awesome tire. I'm in Arizona and the streets in Tucson have potholes all over the place. Typically rough on tires and wheels. I already know what my next tire is going to be! Michelin Commander III.
I am a loyal Michelin product guy. I have their tires on my Motorhome, Genesis, Honda CRv, Jeep Wrangkler and now my 2016 Harley Davidson Ultra Classic Limited.. I swapped out the Dunlop American Elite's I had on the bike, (with only 4k miles) and went with the Commander III's . I have a 4k mile trip coming up the end of the month(7/2022)and wanted the best tires on the market for this "bucket list" journey. I had heard great reviews on the silica compound tire that was advertised as Michelin's "Best of the best" and having their tires on everything else I drive I thought "why not"! I love the design and handling of the Commander III's but being 100% honest, I am replacing the front tire with only 300 miles on it.

I love the design and handling of the Commander III's but being 100% honest, I am replacing the front tire with only 300 miles on it. The vibration and "humming" from the tire is terrible. Between 25 and 45 MPH, when traveling in a straight line, the vibration is unbearable. If you corner or bring the tire off center, the vibration and hum go away. I had the Commander III's installed 4 days ago and am quiet disappointed. I spoke to the bike shop that I purchased the tires from and had them balances and mounted, and was told to contact Michelin direct with my concerns. I am calling their Customer Service tomorrow (6/27/22) and will follow this review with the outcome. I'm sure it's simply a flaw with the design in the front tire. I'm reading the exact same concerns in other comments posted. By the way, as of right now, the rear tire rides AMAZING!! I will not rate anything Michelin makes with less than 5 plus stars. I love their tires and hopefully will post another comment on how awesome their Customer Service was in helping me resolve this issue. "The OTHER Michelin Man" JW smith
