Great deal! Those M/T radials are awsome. There are many cars running DEEEEP into the 8's with 275/60-15's. Those tires are bad *** but will be wore out in about 2-300 miles on the road.
Glad you are getting back into it. Things are finally starting to roll for me as well. This summer should be exciting around here!

Well, I had a buddy that is all he got but that wasn't exactly 300 easy miles. I'd say 10 track passes and 300 hard miles. Sorry to scare you. He has a spool in the rear so every turn eats them up on the road.

with low PSI any tire will wear fast. with proper PSI for daily driving the tires should last around 3k or longer
