5k? seriously... negative buddy

i bought my 1st set for my foxbody, i got them a week before the track opened for the season, sometime in feb. i ran the fox almost everyweekend, sometimes twice a week, on the drag radials. and id say i DD'd the m/t's 90% of the summer, most of the time i was lazy and didnt take them off, they lasted that season, and half of this season on my 4.6...

and i drive a good 2k a month.

that ought to shut up and missinfo about m/ts wearing out way too fast.

I need a tire that will last me a summer or so. I put about 6 or 7k on it a year.
I don't need snow traction. I need a little wet traction. I drive real slow when its wet and if its poring out i make the women drive her car.
I want a tire that will still hook good enough so i'm not kicking it sideways but I dont need a full drag tire i don't care if i spin a little. I also don't care about launch at like 2200 I just need enough so i can step on it of the line.

You also might want to tell him that DR are illegal on the street. Not good for rain either. ITS AN R1 TIRE if you want me to get technical and specific for you. 5k was me low balling it but 10K is realistic as wear and tear.
