OK! I'm going with Michelin commander 180/65/16. I seen somewhere someone went with a 150 isn't that a little small?
What size front tire did you guys use? thanks. BTW mine is a 08 nomad

From what I'v heard and reviews I'v read the commander II is what I'll run front 130/90/16 and back 180/65/16 both bias ply. When the time is right. Thanks All

I'm shopping for tires now and want to go with the Michelin Commander II, about the only option I see for front tire is 130/90/16, this will work ok on a 1600?

well I ended up ordering a rear 150/80/16 for the front, I'm going with a Turanza CT for the rear.
