Re: tire ?????
For the record...I LOVE my Nitto's! They are super sticky and drive great in the rain. They survived a pretty good wreck and have no flat spots. I have been very impressed with them and I'll probably not have anything else on my car.

The biggest is driving style. No need to elaborate; you know what I mean. Second is inflation pressure. Depends on contact area and weight of car. (psi) Third is going to be the alignment and/or condition of the differential. If you have a bad unit it can cause drag on one side. Also, if the bushings are worn on the rearend, it can be slightly out-of-square with the car, causing wear. I could probably get 20k plus out of Drag Radials the way I drive. But then again; I could probably fry a set in 5 minutes. From my listening...the Nittos last longest on average.
