Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 140/75R15 size mean?

140 is the tire width in millimeters, 75 is the aspect ratio (sidewall height), R means radial construction, and 15 is the rim diameter in inches.

Is this a rear-only tire?

Yes — this is a rear tire. You'll need a separate front tire for your Harley.

How long do these tires typically last?

Lifespan varies with riding style and conditions, but Michelin's race-derived compound is engineered for durability alongside performance.

Can I use this on non-Harley motorcycles?

This tire is co-branded for select Harley models. Check the fitment tag on your rim or consult Michelin to confirm compatibility with other brands.

Do I need to replace the front tire at the same time?

Not necessarily, but many riders prefer matching front and rear for consistent handling characteristics.

Best looking and performing tire for Harley period!

2012 Fatboy Lo looks insane with these tires. Get compliments on how the bike looks especially with the flat black paintwork. Strongly recommend this set of tires on anybody's Fatboy Lo. The grip is above my expectations. Have to catch myself because I'm scrapping footboards everywhere because I get overconfident with the grip LOL. Strongly recommend...enjoy!!

Coast to Coast TWICE on a VRod

Held up like a champ. Grip was impressive. Good ride, quick to come up to temp. I'm only switching to a different tire to try the Dunlop Q3 in a 240 width as an experiment. If you have a VRod, you will LOVE this tire. <br /><br />Oh, and I put 2 track days on the tire as well. Awesome cornering grip. Seriously.

Great Rear Tire !

I've ridden 1,000 miles thus far on this tire (rear 240 / 40 / 80) on my 2009 Harley Rocker. Great traction in wet & dry conditions. Look awesome, and I get lots of compliments. Will buy again.

good tire horrible wear

Unfortunately these are the only tires i can buy for my bike. Tread life on these tires is not impressive at all. My old bike i was averaging around 14.000 miles. I'm lucky to get 5.000 out of these. Your pricing compared to the dealer is awesome. Still would like to see other companies manufacture these tires for my 2018 Fat Boy special.

Grippy Tires in Curves

Ordered a replacement set for my 2011 Sportster 883XL at 7000 miles. Placed order around 10:00 AM on Friday and got them at my front door 1:00 PM Saturday morning! Impressive. Wow, what a difference these new tires made! It was noticeable in the turns and over all performance very much improved.
