Seriously... the bike is getting NO mods this summer! haha

Hikos_G: How many miles have you put on your tires since lowering it on the H&Rs? How is your tire wear looking?
I was just looking at the alignment specs again... It looks like we will need the front and back. I was hoping maybe only needing one or the other. BOOO!

Any noticable tire wear issues yet Terry?

BTW ... the front alignment kit should give us camber and caster adjustments.
yeah... I was reading about some kits for the coupes and earlier models etc etc
It kind of looks like they come seperately, front and rear. Did Eibach give you any kind of tentative time frame? I dont want to spend a lot more money.... ohh well.

Our tires with the drop will wear out the inner treads of the tires faster without a doubt. As terry already mentioned, the only way around it is to run a camber kit when they become available.
The stock suspension camber parameters can only be adjusted so much to compensate for the drop. Now whether or not that remaining amount of camber is something you can live with or not is completely subjective. If you drive your car everyday, like most people do, then the wear will show up sooner and will cost you more $, more frequently. If you don't drive it everyday, obviously it'll wear slower. I, for one, do not drive the car everyday. I rotate with my motorcycle so I don't rack up miles on either one and I save on gas. Because of this, my tire wear will obviously not be as fast or apparent as a daily driver.
I've put on about 2500 miles on the new wheels and tires which went on the day I dropped it and if we were going by terry's indicator of dirt on the tire indicating contact patch, then my tires, even with my camber is contacting the ground relatively evenly to the outer edge of the tire.
