drag radial question
 

how many miles can i expect out of a set of drag radials...i have heard 20 -25 thousand miles then today at dinner somone said like 5-7 thousand

10k is a good number to use. 25K? No freaking way at all. Hell, most of us only get 15 - 20k on a set of street tires.

All depends on the tires.

Mickey thompson ET street radials and BFG... not soo much, no more than 8 - 10k. Nittos will last a lot longer.

as in how much longer...my situation is i have a set of stock rims and tires for the winter and i have chrome 17's for the summer which have 245's mounted on them now...just street tires tho...i wanna get 4.10's and need somthing to grip better and the tires are bald anyways so i was just gonna get drag radials that get real good wear or i am going to get like pirelli pzero neros or somthing like that cuz i cannot afford new rims that are wider and all

Expect about 15k from Nittos, and about 5-8k on the BFG's and MT's

depeends if u burn them like me all ****ing day when ur bored

I'm running Nitto 555R 315/35/17 right now. They snag pretty good but I really want to see how long they will last with my occassional play.

I have way over 15k on my 315's and they still have over half the tread...

Tell that to Dustin he just got like 15k on his and now they are bald and about to put on a new set.........of course he is burn out crazy

Nitto 555R's?

Yeah i fianly have mine off i got a total of 15,400miles out of mine they are finally dead lasted a bit over a year and 2 months. I really enjoy drag racing alot and do so about once a month normaly in thw winter i go alot when i have the money and time.

If you drag race alot for fun its a great investment. I am putting another set of my car this weekend.

Yep.. :cool:

wow you must really babdy those drag radials, what a waste :D

I've only done one small burnout with these tires and that was like 4 months ago. :)...I'm actually comtemplating, taking the off and buying some regual street tires that will not wear out as quick as dr's..hell, i don't even drag race any more...seems such a waste of perfectly good tires..
