4-5 hours for thread to be gone, around an hour or so before cords on the A052 for me. Spaced out in several 10-20minutes sessions. In case more people are wondering about the longevity of these. Fastest tire I've tried so far (have not done Hoosiers or similar, but just about anything else in the 100-200TW game). Really keen to see how the CR1 will stack up
