    Depending how you ride 8-10K on front tire. 40K on rear tires. If your aggressive rider, your front tire will wear faster. That is why most riders switched to AVON 91 front trike tire. I received 17k before I had to change and I am aggressive rider.

    I switched rear tires at 31,520 dry rotted in the tread face dunflop OEM . Front Michelin front I have over 15,000 now with 5/32" tread left. This most likely last season for it.

    The oem Dunlop 402 front tire on my 2020 TG is going to need replacement before long. Got just shy of 9k and by 10k it'll need replacement before riding season gets into full swing. I know many like the Avon and I had it on my 2018 TG and considering it but also looking at other Dunlop versions and they are very confusing to me.

    Dunlop has the American Elite, the Elite 3 and also the Elite 4. Not sure of the pros and cons of these and wonder if anyone has experience with these models.

    Jerry, when on 2( a long time ago) I had the Elite tires & they were very good. Not sure now with all the 3,4, &747, lol

    I liked the Avon so well I had dealer take off the 16 (as it only had 4500 on it) & put on the 20. Also switched the Goodyear rears. I now have another 9500 on the 20 & that Avon still looks good . Have to gauge it before the long trip.

    Thanks Bill. Further research indicates the 3 and 4 more suited to sport touring and the American Elite more toward Harleys. So I have a decision to make between Avon or American Elite.

    Did you have the tires mounted in reverse?

    No. The Avon Cobra Trike tire is designed to be mounted on the front of a trike. There is an arrow on the sidewall showing the direction of rotation.

    The rears mount just like a car tire. They actually are car tires. Keep the pressure down.

    Let me know what you get. Have to look at the Elite again after all these years. I remember it had a much deeper tread depth than the stock Dunlops

    If you go with American Elite, I would go with the rear tire instead of the front tire. I have 3000 miles on my American Elite front tire and it doesn't look like it will last another 3000 miles. I am going to change it out before I go my 5000 mile tour ride in May. I will probably go back to the Avon Trike Tire. Got good wear out of that tire.

    Make sure you check for rebates. The Avon Cobra has been offering rebates for a couple years, but I have not checked recently. It was for $20 for 1 tire.

    What ever tires you decide to go with just change them out ever five years and use them as trailer tires...Miss Mysterious just got new rubber when she traded in the black enforcers for shiny chrome ones...that girl is such a chrome whore....

    Nice to see someone else went to higher tires and like the improved ride and handling. I wasn't sure there was room for the wider profile but eventually there is good to hear. Have you noticed any better handling the 70's really helped my handling a great deal.

    started out with 26 pds of air ended up at 22 , yes it handles a lot better , looks good with the big tires , its like a different machine . thanks for the great Idea .
    Nice to get a little more weight on the front wheel what a difference it makes. Our 09' was in need of maintenance so I upgraded springs and valves from Pro Action. These sure ended the nose dives, but we are working to eliminate the occasional noise from the springs or valves for some reason. Congratulations glad you went with taller tires. There is room for 75 series but you would need more power than my stock 103 has. Ride safe Fred
