those with eibach's, how do your tires look now ?

are the tires wearing out unevenly very fast ?

and how long have u had your eibach springs ?

I'm just trying to guage to what affect the lowering springs have on the max, some cars are not as affected to lowering springs as other cars are in terms of camber tire wear.

less than a 1.5 inch drop is not really going to cause much camber wear. Your main concern is toe, which wears out tires much faster than camber. So make sure you get an alignment to fix the toe, after installation is done.

Get an alignment after the drop and you'll be fine.

I got an alignment at the dealer for very cheap. It's worth doing it right for the long run instead of wearing out your tires unevenly.
