All recent ADR/DOT approved tyres have 3 ratings printed on the side of the tyre, Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature. Treadwear is rated against a standard minimum "acceptable" wear rating of 100, a tyre rated at 200 should last twice as long, 300 3 times as long etc. So 40 means its a damn fast wearing tyre compared to your average bob jane out-of-rounder. Its the price you pay for traction!

By comparison, most reasonably priced ($120-$150) 50 profile 15" tyres have either a 200 or 300 rating.

Anyone seen or had a chance to try out the new BF Goodrich street legal drag tyre yet?

Phil
