Question for those running MT ET DR's on the street....
I've been through countless Nitto DR's and have found that if I keep them around 18-20 psi, they tend to last longer
Any higher, and the center will start to wear out quickly
I just ordered a set of MT ET DR's and I'm curious what pressure I should run them at to prolong wear on the street

17-21 psi hooks best at track. I find 25-28 psi on the street to be the best. They hook better at 21 psi on the street though... but i like the feel better when they are little higher.
I've only had them for about 1k miles and don't notice any wear yet.
My BFG's lasted me a whopping 2.5k miles.. mostly because i could light those bitches up from a 100 roll. It was like i was still on stock tires haha.
I can still spin the 325's easily.. but i can't get them loose above 60.

i keep mine at about 22psi on the street. they hook great. never spin em unless i dump it at 4k.
my old set lasted me 12k miles. with lighting them up at the track twice. and some donuts in a parking lot...

Man, I wish mine would hook @ 25 on the street. Lol, I can't seem to get it to hook on anything over about 15. Hell, I think I've got 'em on 13 right now. What sizes are you guys running?

325/50/15's here on a 10" prostar. I run about 20psi in mine and they kinda hook from a roll on the street. My setup is a 402/T56/9" and it needs all the tire it can get. It will still blow these things off but you can get it to hook up on the street from a roll. At the track I'm mustered a 1.58 60' with them, launching at 6k smoking this shitty centerforce DF clutch. Now if only my posi wasn't a POS... fixing that and the clutch this winter. Hello 10's
