Default Finally got my Nitto Drags!

Just got me some Nitto Drag radials for my 2000 GT. I was wonder what kind of life could I expect out of these tires? Any tips for these tires on optimal performance on the strip and also on the street? Also would drag radials adversely effect handling.

I have heard people getting upwards of 10-12k miles on Nittos. For strip I really cant help there since I run Drag T/A's, best thing woul dbe to go on test tune days at track and play with airpressure and burnout till you find best combination. In regards to handling you shouldnt notice any difference, just be careful in rain since you have less tread then a normal tire.
