Everytime I make a u-turn or a tight turn there is screeching sound comming from the tires. This happens especially on a cement surface. I notice that this happens to a lot of trucks and big cars but usually dont hear it on smaller cars. Im thinking that its an alignment problem because my car is lowered on H&R springs. Anybody else have this problem?
Also does anybody know the cure to a creaking rear spring? Its bugging me to death

Crappy tires is your answer. Not only your tires, but everyone who has stock tires. The RE92's arent made for the type of driving a sports car does. I just wish I had the money to get new tires. I have the same problem as you on all types of surfaces... :loser:

I agree with you. It is most likely an alignment problem if you have not gotten you car aligned yet after you dropped it. I have a dropped RSX-S and I let my girlfriend borrow it while she was waiting for her TC. She hit a curb driving through an empty parking lot at night and made my alignment out of wack and bent my rim. Anyways... after driving it, my tires would screech just making regular turns at slow speeds. I think you should get ur car aligned. pce

our tires suck, as soon as mine wear out, I'm getting some new ones.

check air pressure before dropping $$ on an alignment

That's a good idea! But seriously my xB does the same. It seems like everytime I turn my tires screech.

This is a function of the tire treads squirming or crawling against a smooth surface. It is most pronounced in service garages with polished and sealed concrete floors, or pedestrian crosswalk paint. Better quality tires will usually have tread patters that prevent most of this noise.
Higher tire pressure will also help since it helps support the treads in position as you turn.
