Highest Mileage
I am on my 2nd Commander 3 tire. I ride a 2015 HD Heritage. The 1st tire went 12,500 miles which is the most I have gotten and I have tried them all. We shall see what happens with the 2nd tire. The front tire is also commander 3 and has over 15,000 and is up for replacement in the spring. Will go with them again.
Vibration
Front tire vibrates at 120kmh despite being balanced, and bike being gone through. Have come to the conclusion that many riders have experienced the same issue.

Fantastic Tires!
Great tire! Motorbike feels stable while cornering, through curves, wind, hail, rain and through construction zones! I average 10,000 miles per year riding. The design, materials and performance are top of the line. Worth the money to ride confidently. Fits the bike per its specifications.
Great tire
Great tires I did not receive my rebate will not do business with Michelin again.

Great Performance
I now have these tires on two Harley’s. Great handling and performance with these newer generation C3s
Commander III
Ride nice. Last long. Stick well.
Excellent Performance
Excellent performance HD Road Glide handles well with the Michelin tires purchased
Disappointed
Was hoping that they had fixed these tires from all of the problems they were originally having but they haven’t. Same issues as everyone else noise and vibration from the front tire. Don’t understand why they are still this way but don’t buy them just get the American elites instead.
Very disappointed
Tire is barely a year old. I bought 2 180-65-16 for a 2019 road glide and a 2014 Electra glide limited.The road glide didn’t make 8000 miles. The Electra limited is wearing good but weather checking really bad. When not riding bikes are parked in a garage
Overpriced and overrated
I purchased for my 2022 Honda Rebel 1100 after running Shinko 999 Long Hauls for about 12k miles. Thinking I was getting an upgrade because, well, they're Michelin right? More expensive, best tires etc. Boy was I WRONG. I'm taking these Michelins off as soon as the set of Shinko's comes in. I've run these tires for about 500 miles and they're just bad. Wobbles and vibrations aplenty and they definitely not nearly as stable at speed as the much less expensive Shinkos. I've been riding my entire life and these tires are overpriced and not very good.
JodyBrou, Thank you for your review. We are sorry you are experiencing issues with your MICHELIN Commander III tires. Vibration can have several causes, such as incorrect mounting, incorrect balancing, worn motorcycle components, etc. Once your bike is inspected by your dealer, you can always contact Michelin Consumer Care at 800-346-4098.
