well you see, even though your car might be close to within spec as far as all alignment conditions go, you can still often times experience a greatly increased amount of odd tire wear. this is do to the fact that with your lowered springs, you have less travel with an increased spring rate. this makes it so every bump you go over, every change in shock position, your car's weight is putting more pressure down onto the tire than with a gigantic lower rate stock spring. i might have confused some things but i think you know what i mean, word.
