How many runs are most getting out of little bubbas on a 7.50ish dragster?

On the bracket car I use to put a new set of 3190s on at 200 runs just cause I felt guilty, new set didnt feel or work any different then the old set so probably could of gone longer. This was running 1/8 mile

Change when you feel comfortable, but we try to change around 250 runs. I know some go 300-350

I've gotten 300 runs before, and only changed cause tires were a few years old at that point so just wanted a fresh set for the season with a few big races that year. On a 7.50ish (4.70's I assume), I don't see why 250-300 couldn't be done. Unless you are a heavy car with a lot of power, then that will abuse them more than a light car with less power to get to the same ET. I was going 4.90's at 1980-2000lbs for most of those 300 runs, with 1.10-1.12 60' most of the time.

For you guys that are getting 300 passes out of those tires. How long does it take to put that many passes on those tires?

I had put 300 on in two seasons. Not much doubling or 3 day weekends in that time period. I know some guys can get 300-500 passes in one season.
