My tires wear even all the way across, I have 20K miles on my Michelin PS2s, naturally my rears will wear out first cause I drive somewhat aggressively but still good for another 6 to 8K miles. Fronts may last forever, no inside wear at all and I run 37 PSI front and back. These tires are wearing very good considering the UTQG is 220.

I dropped a big dime on my Tanabe coilovers... I'm sure they are cheaper elsewhere, but I was kind of stuck with what assaulttech was offering me. It was approx. $1700 for the coils. With that said, I absolutely LOVE them. My G is sitting on 20's and are on pretty meaty tires, and it still looks respectably low in contrast to the ground. They stiffen up quickly, but are adjustable to where you can be softer than OEM springs. Also, they're pretty lookin', hahah. I have camber pieces ($260) for my rears but I have yet to install them due to lack of dremel tool (I do all my car work myself; few exceptions being tint and some damage repairs). My car is dropped around 2". Not SLAMMED, but keep in mind I'm on 20's, with meaty tires. OEM bumpers and sides. I'll look lower when I get some body parts and new tires. No alignment issues as far as I can tell, so far, so I didn't get an alignment. Planning to spend money to have professionals roll my fenders; that's something I'd rather not risk. So, I've spent around $2000, but only about $1700 is currently in use. And again, I'm pretty sure the Sustec ProFIVES can be found for a lot cheaper than what I was stuck with. Cursed assaultech...
I think ill do the the same drop it and space wheels out and stretch tires first the do alignment and camber kit

Right for that money we could have done other stuff but I would have to say that Suspension is the most expensive mod
haha forgot I had one of these too, I feel like after awhile I need to go out and look all over my car to remember what I have even done..

And OP I don't even want to add up what I have spent. On top of the coils I spent $550 for the SPL front a arms so I just quit adding it up after that. I will say it was money well spent, I love my stance, ride, and handling.
wheel spacers 20/25- $200
used eibach pro kit- $160
install and alignment- $300
leaking struts, opted for coils
megan coils- $600
installed myself, $50 worth of tools, 2 days of time
life time alignment- $150
total = $1460
sold the springs for $100
$1360 plus tires all around at least once a year.

Usually, yes. However pretty much all aftermarket parts for this car are expensive. Gotta pay to, play!
