That's how I ran my Red @37psi daily with Mobile 1. Never had an issue. I think another possible cause that no one is addressing is the fact that in place of the stock 16g wheel they now have essentially a 35r wheel. When Mitsubishi designed the shaft and largest possible bearing clearance in the 16g cartridge, I doubt they ever intended it to be able to withstand such a large wheel ratio....
