Default Those with TRD springs on tC, any tire wear?

I searched, no luck...

those who have had their tC's lowered with JUST the trd lowering springs, did the dealer align it for you? I read here there were no specs yet, but was curious what they did? If no alignment, are your tires wearing at all? I wanna know cause im putting on some new 18's and dont wanna wear the tires out obviously...Are the specs for the tC alignment out yet w/ the trd's?

Thanks!
I have a lowered integra (2.5" in the front and 3" in the back) and it eats tires when aligned w/ a camber kit even...it sucks :-/

Default tire wear?

I talked to TRD about your question and they said that the Dealers should just be using factory specs and you should not have a problem. Hope that helps.

Hi Pierced,
I had my TRD springs installed over a month ago before alignment specs were available for the tC. I just took my car this past Monday and had the alignment done at a dealership. There wasn't any noticeable tire wear yet and the car didn't pull at all but the alignment needed to be fixed. I paid $70 to get it straightened out :-). Hope this helps. -Jayme
