Honestly Steve, how many miles do you see from tires with UTQG ratings of 200 and below?
I would think these tires will last 10-12k miles.. if I am very hard on them all time then less. I've heard the Toyo's last better than many. When they were down enough they will be race slicks.. lol

I might put 5000 - 10000 miles on this car a year.. so a set every year or two isn't that bad. This isn't a daily driver and I like the way they grip on other cars Ive driven. Besides, it's a pain to own a track set and a street set of wheels and tires..
