It's not the passes the kill a DR. It's how hard you burnout with them. If you don't melt then you can get 100's of passes. If you do long burnouts youll get 50. Each manufacture has a guideline for burnout procedures that work for that particular tire.

I have 10 passes And 5,000 mile on mine

Do a 3-5 sec burnout then roll out

Back in water box spin tires for like 1 sec
Then pull forward out of box
Then do ur burnout

Just for the track... How often will you go in a year? I think you'll get a few years out of them.

It's addicting. My guess is you'll get 150/200?? or so on a set but it's so hard to predict. Time will tell.
