- Front Rim Size: 4.00x18 | Rear Rim Size: 5.50x17 -
- Michelin Commander II (by general forums consensus) Is the latest best fit and wearing tire for the liner. It is available for the rear in Radial size 200 /55 /17 (not the OEM recommended size -but very close)
Front availability is another matter, as the Cmdr II is only available in a Bias tire in our front size of 130 / 70 / 18 (see link below for mixing radial /bias types)
The alternative, for staying Michelin and radial both Fr/Rr, is to use a Pilot Activ rear tire in front, size 130 / 70 /18, some reverse the arrow when mounting rear tires on the front, but this practice is considered unnecessary with modern radial construction.
Doing a search through the tire section of the forum for 'Michelin' will bring up many relevant threads. The following are links to Michelin Commander II discussions:

- Metzler: Metzler does NOT make a proper tire for the rear. Although their website and representatives say it will work, we do not recommend the use of their tire. Most members have received 3k-5k miles on it because it is made of very soft compounds for extreme traction.
