Can't find Voyager XII E3 front tire
Anyone know where I can get a Dunlop MT90B-16 E3 front tire. I ordered one from Amazon and got an American Elite tire. Im sending it back. I think it must be a fake. I can't find one anywhere on the Internet.

Re: Can't find Voyager XII E3 front tire
any dealer can order the E3 front tire. The rear tire is hard to find

Re: Can't find Voyager XII E3 front tire
I was told by one dealer that the Elite 4 front tire is being introduced as replacement for the Elite 3 and no more front E-3s will be available.
The E-3 rear is still available until stock runs out and then it will be the E-4s he said.
I can't confirm what the dealer said, but it seems as though Voykimmer is right about not being able to find an E-3 front.
I'm sure there are dealers who have some stock of the front E-3s, but finding one may be a search.

Re: Can't find Voyager XII E3 front tire
I found out thru research that the Dunlop Elite 3 Bias Touring Tire - Front - 130/90B16 is a direct replacement for the Dunlop MT90B-16 E3 which are no longer available. I ordered and received the rear Dunlop Elite 3 MV85B-15 from Amazon with no proplem. They are readily available. Everybody stocks them. I called several dealers asking if they can order me a front
Dunlop Elite 3 MT90B-16 and all said it is no longer available. I will return the American Elite and I ordered the Dunlop 130/90B-16 Elite 3 front from Amazon.

I'd be curious to find out of the new tire is the same height as your old one. I suspect it may be taller.

It is the same height, diameter, whatever. Just an improved rubber formula. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.
