Any comparisons between the Cruistecs to the Dunnys? They're both dual compound.

Awesome! I’m up in the country but closest towns are fort St. John and Dawson creek.
Ya def gonna go with the cruisetecs I think they seem to be a straight upgrade from the 888s from what I’ve been able to glean

I'm in Camrose so we're in the same "neck of the woods" as you and Sledge. I put on a set of Avon Cobra Chrome's two seasons ago. They make the factory size rear and front tire for the M109R's. I went with a 250 on the rear since the 240 wasn't available at the time. So far, they have been great tires compared to the factory, but I don't have enough mileage on them to be a good judge of their longevity. I ride mostly in Central AB and am 2-up a lot of the time. The tires feel nice and firm and grip the road well, even in the rain. I had ordered them online and had them installed by a local shop. I've ordered form both Fortnine and Pete's Superbike in the past with good results. I also had a set of Avon Cobra's on my M90 before it broke. I would defiantly get the Avon's again.

Ya found those interesting too. I like the idea of the dual compound from the cruisetec so I think I will give those a try first then maybe go with the chromes after. See what kind of difference I feel

I used to have ME880s then ME888s now Cruisetec 160/260.
I didn't notice much difference in durability between 880s & 888s but the Cruisetec seems to be longer lasting. I have 7.5k miles on current set of Cruisetec and still plenty of tread left ,about another 1k miles I guess, in UK we have a minimum legal tread depth of 1mm across whole tyre but I tend to replace before that
