thats my point the guys singing oem dunlop praise are likely running 408,the 402 sucks if your on pre 09 your on a sucky 402 then run any tire other than stock and you'll be happy( i get the most milage on dunlop e3"s.

I got 31K out of a D408F and 21K out of a D407 rear on my 09. Needless to say I'm rolling on Dunlop American Elites right now, great mileage

I'll keep sticking with the stock dunlops. Got almost 20k out of my last rear tire and my front has like 36,000 on it with life to go.

42psi, is that what is suggested? Seems like the tire was junk before you left on your trip, just my 2 cents. good luck
