Front tire life?

I put a new set of Hoosier 26" front tires on my car over the winter, the tread grooves are very shallow compared to the old style Moroso Drag Specials or M&H fronts that I was using earlier. Not sure how long the shallow Hoosiers will last, but really doubt they will get even close to the Morosos. I had the same set of Moroso 71.0 Drag Specials on my car for over 10 years, and they still had plenty of tread showing. The Morosos also held air better than any other tire that I have ever tried. The car could sit in the garage all winter, and lost less than 5 psi in 5 months. My previous MT and current Hoosiers would go flat in a couple of weeks. The only downside to the Moroso Drag Specials, is that they are only made in 3 sizes, with about 2 inches between each size. Never tried the Moroso DS2s.
