I ran a vredestein van tire on mine and got over 30,000 miles on it and never had any problems with it. If they kept making that tire I would have gotten another one. Changed it out for the michelin commander 2 tire. If it last as long as I like it to be, then I will stay with it, if not then I will get another car tire.

Originally posted by curmudgeon View PostLove my Austone Taxi Tire on the rear of my '07 Midnight. Hoping to get 25,000 miles out of it. I don't notice any difference in turns at all which you would think there would be with the flatter profile. Bike is less prone to get stuck in road ruts or steel draw bridges now. Bike also is much less squirrelly while riding on grass than before. Two up riding is more cushy than before. I keep 45lbs pressure in it. No downside that I can tell and plenty of upside.
I just changed mine last week at 28,000 miles. It had worn to the wear bars.

Why bother with car tire when you can get a pair of high quality Mich C2's for the R* to your door for under $300 (less on sale) that will go a minimum of 2x more miles then the avg bike tire and in some cases 3x more miles.
