I'll give Dunlop the benefit of the doubt here.  The tires I bought were
among the first in the country.   I know that tire companies are constantly
fooling with rubber compounds.  MeZ4s are much longer lasting than they used
to be.  My new RT came with a set that lasted 8K....unheard of in the past.
They worked much better than I'd remembered too.
