[QUOTE="Stanger00, post: 13300920, member: 128629"] You are saying that the treadwear rating is an ambiguous number...That is a industry standard set by the NHTSA and each tire manufacture gets their wear rating from them. [B]However, YMMV when using tires because of road surface and driving habits.[/B] If you use a tire with a 200 rating I wouldnt expect them to last more than 10k miles if you use them on the drive axle and no more than 15-18k with regular 5k rotations. I have used tires with these ratings before and that is my experience. The DR's you listed are all tires that will get burned up in 5k miles maybe a little more maybe a little less. Depends on the cars power, burnouts and street racing. I'm sure if you cruise around with them and get on the throttle a few times they will last nearly 10k miles but whats the point of buying them if you are going to drive like that. I would compare the Nitto NT05 to these other tires; Falken 615's, Dunlop Star specs and Hankook V12's. I'm sure there a few others but I cant think of their names. [/QUOTE]
