Dunlop DSST availability
Where else can you source this tire other than the dealer? Apparently its not listed on TireRack. Or has everyone gone away from these run flats and replaced with something more reasonable and quiet. Mine are on the loud side of what I'm used to. But then again, it could be the lack of sound deadening in the rear lol.

I'm not sure that Dunlop even sells that tire in 205/40-18 anymore. Went on there website and searched by Tire Size and I couldn't look up 205/40-18. And like you said, tire rack doesn't have them anymore and they had them a couple months ago from what I remember. If you want to stick with the 205/40-18 tire size, you could go with the Yokohama S.Drive, which I've used on my GP and thought they were pretty good. The S.Drive isn't a Run Flat but I prefer Non-Run Flats. Just purchase a Slime Tire Patch Kit and put it in the Hatch. Besides, who wants to pay $300 per tire! You'll save around $500 just by getting Non-Run Flats.

Oh, I totally agree with you. The only issue is my GP is still on the original tires and it looks like the original owner replaced one tire due to blowout? Well, the other tires are worn out evenly and I'd like to replace one more tire to make them match.
But seeing that is no longer an option, I will just run these down and replace with S. Drives. I had them on my 740i Sport a few years ago and they were ok. I wouldn't mind getting the Hankook V12s but I doubt they come in our sizes. But I was already planning on going to non-run flats and throwing a couple bottles of tire sealant as a precaution.
