I need a new set of tires
Hey guys I'm not sure why I'm guessing becuase my car needs to be alligned badly, but i baught a set of BFG geoforce drag radial I drive the car on the street it makes 450whp so i figured it was a good choice. But my rear tires look fine my fronts are completly bauld. Now i know they do not get a lot of tread life but theres only 300 miles on them. Is this normaly, or due to not be alligned. If so What tires do you guys run on the street with that much power that will hook up pretty good and will get more tread life than that ?
300mi and your tires are bald? How many burn outs did you do?
Alignment issues would normally show by one side of the tire being more worn than the other. But it normally wouldn't show after 300mi unless there was something drasticly wrong.

hows your alignment and suspension also? and are you reffering to the bfg drag radials on the front? those dont last long at all theyre a sticky tire not a mileage tire.

I will try and get pictures as soon as possible Yes there BFGoodrich Geofroce drag radial TA. My suspension is all bran new right before i drove the car i installed some omni coilovers and front and rear camber kits so my camber is probually way off. But I have done zero burnouts just around town and some highway driving. Granted I spin a little due to me makeing 454whp. Righ when i installed the tires I set them trip in the car to see how many miles i've been putting on the new motor and it's only around 3 or 400 miles and theres no thead left. Also I have never let the car get below a half a tank so at a half i alwasy fill it up i've only stoped at the pump 3 times.

If you didn't get an alignment, thats why you have worn tires. Ignore camber. If you changed ride height, you changed toe, and toe kills tires.

Ya the car was slamed i raised it to about stock height when i installed the new coilovers, and i figured it had to do with the car not being aligned but i just feel like 300 miles is extremely short

The same as the fronts and there just about fine and i messed with the camber and tow on the rears also. I will have pic up sometime this week. I mean the first day i got the tires i drove maybe 10 minuts and I was peeling peices of rubber off my tires when i got home. I'll get pictures for you guys
Having your TOE off will scrub the hell out of your tires and wear them out in no time flat...
I suggest getting your ride height exactly how you want it and get an alignment performed immediately...
Even raising or lowering your car 1/2 an inch will throw your toe waaay out...
And toe is what will eat through tires.
