He is running slicks on city roads :shock: - No rain or snow there to worry about? I wonder how long they last?

I was thinking the same thing! LOL Seems like a good way to wear out expensive tires quickly!
You know we are expecting pics right?

perhaps im totally wrong in thinking this as i have no real experience
but driving slicks in the city wouldnt cause much additional wear, as the tires arent warmed up to evoke extra grip, let alone the frictional surface loss from a lot of slow right, and left handers isnt great either. i imagine you could run those every day between track events without loosing out much...

Driving in the 'city' (downtown TO) is a very very slow process. those tires wont warm up at all, and you hardly need much grip at stop and go 10 km an hr  so many nice cars in TO, but nowhere to drive them until you are well out of the city...

My friend's Eclipse GSX had Hoosier slicks on it for like 5 1/2 months cuz he was doing alot of track driving. He said that if you stay off the freeway, and rough sufraced roads that they dont wear much more than some R-compounds.
