[QUOTE="Teej281, post: 13300543, member: 61920"] Guys, treadwear is relative only within a tire company. The MT street comp tires have a 300 treadwear because everything else that Mickey Thompson makes has a treadwear of 0. So in comparison, it has a much higher treadwear than their other tires. Hell, Hoosier drag radials have a treadwear of 40...tell me how that's even possible when they wear out even quicker than nt05r's, bfg dr's, and even mt dr's, all who have a similar tread depth and a wear rating of 0. The treadwear number is really only important if you're comparing tires of the same company. The sport comps are compared to Michelin pilot sport 2's if I'm not mistaken. For a street setup, street comps would get my vote. I've had the nt05's on the rear of my 02 irs equipped gt. they hook pretty well but lasted me less than a year. Only got like 10k out of them. Street comps should treat you well. Either tire is going to spin some, but I like the street comp for street use. [/QUOTE]
