Well I just ordered some Shelby flat black CS1 20x11 20x9 rims. I ordered them with 255/35/20 Nt05 up front and 315/35/20 NT05R tires in the back. What life should I expect from my rear tires as i DD my stang 20 miles a day. I race maybe 1 time a month but im hard on my weekend drives around. Still have the option to do the non R nt05 sames size for less $ would they really last that much longer?

I have the non R's. Shit tire for drag racing, it's meant for corners, super stiff sidewall. I'm at about 12000 miles on em and 6 passes at the strip, they are around 30% tread now.

The non-Rs will last twice as long as the Rs. You can expect up to 15k on the NT05Rs, and 30k+ on the NT05s; with how you drive.

Thanks thats just was I was looking for, about a year and a half of use then on to the next setup. Cant wait to get my car back from the shop today, finished the break Rotors now getting my brembo calipers painted red.
