- Hi all!
-
- I have a slammed full size blazer with Mickey Thompson 29x15.5" street
- tires. I'm curious as to if they are capable of being used daily for a
- commute of 65 miles round trip? Will they wear out way too quickly?
- What problems would i have? They are nylons and my front tires are steel
- belted and i get a little drift when i drive on the street but i can live with
- that. What i don't want to live with is wearing out these $150 tires
- when i can use a set of $80 steel belted jobbers althought i'll lose 4" of
- width... Should i leave these mt's on or use them just for racing?
