08 shocks are 35 psi max. I think the 09s and 10s are 50 psi max, so yes, they are different.

09 and newer bikes have a 50psi rating on the shocks. That is where I keep mine when we are 2 up. At times we still bottom outwhile riding.
As far as the tire wear and recall,I have had the 408 installed. I will let ya know how it works out. I had to have front beerings and also rear beerings replaced. my rear tire was cupped real bad after only 5200 miles also.
