That's why changing rear tires every 2 years is very normal.

i wish i got 2 months out of mine. With street tires rolling burnouts are way to fun not to do them every chance you get. The drag radials dont last but a month if i hit the track 2 or 3 times plus some fun on the streets.

I did have quite a bit of fun during those 13 days!



I currently have 3 months and 2k miles on my rear tires.... Thinking they might only last another month - tops.
