2 Tires worn in 15K Miles-HELP!
Dropped my car on Eibach Pro kit. Ran fine for 18 months, noticed tires worn. Got 4 wheel alignment and then straight to the tire store (500 feet away). Installed 4 new BFG g-force Sport A/S and have rotated them every 3-4K miles. Now after 15K miles, 2 tires have inside wear. I can't afford another set of $800 tires. What should I do- go back to stock springs or install camber kits? Here is my alignment sheet done after the new alignment.

Honestly, I'm right there with you except with snow tires. I don't even have 8000 miles on 2 of them and they're completely shot, worn past the wear bars. You're alignment seems fine, maybe the tires were faulty?

Did you get this TSB fixed yet?

I had the same problem after 12000 mi. My comptech springs caused inner tire wear. The toe is killer in the rear. Get yourself an ingalls rear camber kit. Best $145 you can spend to save your tires. Ever since the install and rear alignment my tires wear evenly.

I believe they said 1 front and 1 rear. The set before the alignment was both rear. I saw that Eibach has a camber kit for the rear for around $90. Ingalls you need 2 kits right?

the suspension is the same reguardless of the turanza's or the mx4m's. Take the TSB and get the bump stops fixed.

Well, I had completely new non-oem tires on and was dropped (albeit with the a-spec suspension) when I brought mine in for this TSB. I would just explain that your VIN falls within the affected range and you want it fixed. That disclaimer for the TSB is probably written more for protection against replacing tires--the fix itself you can definitely get done.
That being said, if you had one front and one rear wearing prematurely then the rear bump stops might not be the problem... but getting it done can't hurt either.
