You can drive them daily, but they will get worn down to the cords in a couple of months, because they are made from a softer compound. In any case you wouldn't want to run racing tires on the street... any water on the road and you will be sliding all over the place.

Also, most people run DOT approved racing tires, with at lease 1 groove. The full racing slick tires with no grooves are not approved for street use. (as if 1 groove is going to make any difference in the wet...).

Many races require you run street legal DOT approved tires.
