Hello... I have came across some Nitto drag radials i'd like to buy.  However, they are pretty worn out.  The center tread is almost completely gone.     My question is how does this type of tire hook when its this old.  I dont want to buy them and fibers start to show after a pass or two, so i'm just curious how much tire compound is actually there, and does it still hook when worn down.

edit:
here is a pic i took:

typically, you dont buy used drag radials.... because people only take them off when they need to be replaced
