Question MT Drag radial/daily drivers?

What is the expected mileage on a daily driven MT Drag Radial with occasional trips to the drag strip?


Well, just like everyone else, I am very interested in the somewhat new MT drag radial.

I have been through a few sets of Nitto 555Rs and they were a great tire for daily driving and optimal dry grip. I was able to cut several 1.8s with a relatively low HP bolt on only LT1 and they would last about 13k-15k even with trips to the drag strip at least twice a month and warming them up for a street race a few times a week. As far as the MTs go, well, I dont expect they will last quite as long, but just how long would they maybe last being daily driven?

btw-did search, feature wasnt working.

Just for an update, I now have 1000 street miles and 4 track passes on my ET Radials and there are little to no signs of wear.
