Default Hoosier DR's for DD

Well im about do for some new Dr's and im thinking about Hoosier's. This will be my daily driver. I have nittos right now, and they suck only had them since late september and there all ready bald in the middle and the car was down for almost a month some wear in there as well, and they dont hook well at all for me on the street. Before the nittos i had M/T's and those lasted awhile and hooked nicely. but now i noticed these hossiers and heard they are great on the street and dont need to be heated up as much as the m/t's and now im intrested.. what do you guys think? Any of you daily drive these if so how long did they last ? and also how deep is the tread depth, the mickeys have deep tread so they lasted longer then expected for me.

I don't recomend them for daily driving not much tread for rainy days. It is true about hooking on the street though no big burnout needed.

How many miles are people getting out of m/t and hoosier dr's on the street? I've heard 5-10K is pretty typical for nittos, but I would think it would be even less with the stickier ones.

i'll be curious about the Hoosier's too....tread depth-wise that is and longevity. i absolutly hate my nittos, they do last a while, but suck in every other possible aspect. i had ET Street Radials for a while, loved them, but burned them all up at the track in one weekend
