3000 miles is about all the miles I've ever seen anyone get out of a pair of drag radials, you may not be as bad off as you think you are. Bob

My truetrac is holding up great so I would guess the wavetrac will also.

Bump, I'm interested as well.

It's kind if cool that they come with a lifetime warranty!

You have to remember that the inside tire when you turn is not spinning the same as the outside tire. This will cause your tires to wear quicker.

i know its not my first spool,i got a 87 suzuki samurai with a spool and ive drove it for 2 years and the tires are still in good shape.i guess its because tha sami weighs 2000 lbs,maybe i need about a 1500lb weight reduction
