Commander III Touring tyres = The BEST
The Commander III touring tyres are the absolute best money can buy. Awesome wear, Grip, Confidence and durability. Your mad if u run any other brand of tyre.
My Commander lll s
these tyres have been great, especially in the wet, but unlike the Commander ll s, which wore evenly front and rear at the same time, twice, these Commander lll tyres have worn differently, one front tyre has been replaced, the second will be replaced soon, with the first doing around 23000 kms, this tyre doing approx 17000 kms, and wearing more on the right side
Commander 3
I was initially disappointed with the tyres as they were very hard to scrub in - very easy to break traction in the wet Now they seem to be rather good
do not recommend
i picked the commander 3s based on the reviews and what i thought was the warranty. Ive only had the tires on just over 2 years, purchased around may of 2021 and less than 10k miles. front tire needs replaced and the back looks fine. ive been on hold now for an hour waiting to talk to someone about the warranty and still am as i type this review. I would not recommend anyone buy these tires. I guess the Michelin customer service is the same no matter what division they are.
Fantastic tire!
very nice ride. Was raining today and felt very stable.

horrifying in the wet!!!
They wear like cast iron but grab even worse in the wet!! Tires have almost killed me @ 6 times in 5000 miles!! In the dry they aren't too bad but God help you if you run into rain!! I've been on flat road,minor sprinkle for rain on cruise and the rear just broke free!! Not impressed at all
Confidence Booster
I put the Commander IIIs on my Indian Roadmaster before a 6800 mile trip. I saw a LOT of rain but none more intense than the span of highway between Daytona and Orlando, FL. The tires gripped the road and never hydroplaned…they tracked true. 2 days later I was in 325 miles Rain shower but didn’t care because my Commander IIIs kept me well connected to the road.

Strange vibration and road noise
I've had two sets of the commander 2s prior and never had any issues or concerns with them. Mileage and where to seemed to be very normal. I write a Harley-Davidson road glide ultra and swapped out to the commander 3s in the spring of 2022. After about 3,000 MI a vibration that I thought would clear up after a few miles is still there and getting worse. The worst thing about it is it's only when you're going straight which is what a touring bike does. If you get even a little off-center of the front tire the vibration goes away. I ride with many other guys that have the same tire and it all does the same thing. It's a very thin buzzy vibration but it will put your hands to sleep in no time. I'm going to submit a warranty claim with my Harley-Davidson dealer in Greenville South Carolina and see if they can swap this tire out. I've heard it was a bad run of tires but I've also heard of people swapping them out for other Commander 3s and the same thing happening.
Best tire yet
I just installed my third set of Commander III's on my Harley Ultra classic. These are the best motorcycle tires I have ever owned. They create a very comfortable ride. They are quiet. They handle very well in curves, and in rain they grip to the road. My local Harley shop tried to steer me away from them because of "issues." Don't listen to them! I can't wait for Michelin to develop the Commander 4's but I dont see how they could improve this tire!
Hi Joseph, thank you for your review of our MICHELIN Commander III Touring tire! Glad you enjoy the wet grip and handling! Thank you for your support!

Comander 3's best tire ever !!!
My rear had 23,000 miles on it and still had tread left. I just changed it out for thus season, the front has 28,000 on it still looks great even the sidewalls still look like I used tire shine on them and I don't. Just all around good dang tires that make me feel safe no matter the weather or road conditions!!! Thanks for a great product. Darren from Michigan's thumb on a harley ultra classic .
