Michelin built the Commander III Cruiser around wet grip first, and in its own internal testing against Metzeler Cruisetec, Metzeler M888 Marathon Ultra, and Dunlop Elite 4, it posted the best wet grip and shortest wet stopping distances of the group. It's engineered for enhanced wet grip and exceptional longevity, which is exactly what a cruiser owner wants from a tire that's going to sit on the bike for years, not seasons. Sized 160/70B17. Load/speed index: 73V.
