just wondering what tire I should go with on front if have car tire on rear.. when had a vtx I really loved the battle axe by Bridgestone.. i only have 9000 on front and its starting to wobble bad...put it on lift today and found no issues with bearings.. but did notice the tire seems a little oblong..as in has a high spot..
thanks

I think any tire you want is ok except Bridgstone.
Bridgstone have a very bad reputation on this site.

+1 on the Commander II's. Decent price and good mileage.

The BE's are a knock off tire contracted to a company in Brazil that uses inferior materials. Heard a lot of bad things about 'em.

Go with the BF Goodrich TA's.

Here's another vote for the Avon Cobra.
