BFGs are very good street drag radials, but yeah they wear fast. From what I've read they last around 5k worth of miles.

Only time I've used mine was when i went to the track, but my clutch was slipping . New clutch, new coilovers, BFGs...let the fun begin!

No there isn't. The M/T radials wear out relatively quick as well. The Nittos has really good tread life from my experience but their sidewall is a great deal stiffer. Anybody know of the new Dunlop radials yet?
