I'd say about 25-40 until they are absolute toast.

we have used the M&H 22x8x13 for about 60+ passes and still have alot to go.
The M&H does not really require alot of burnout, just a quick hop and its ready to go.
I have even ran just a dry hop on it a few times and have gotten 1.7 60fts on my all motor SOHC crx.
The compound is good that long burnouts are really a waste.

I"m not sure on those 22x8x15's, i believe thats a M/T brand, which I have heard require it to be heated up more to get good traction.
at 20-25 passes, thats only like 2-3 events. we have used ours for more than a season with no problems.

my first set of 20x8x14 slicks lasted about 150+ passes. The current set is at 85-90 passes. The last guy who borred them for Norwalk failed to tell me his camber was wacked! They might have 20 passes left in them if I'm lucky!
