Default BC Racing Coilovers Alignment

Anyone running these without a tire wear issue? If so do you attribute this to a good alignment, FIGS arms or some other factor? I drive my car at least 1,000 miles a month and don't want to deal with tire wear issues...

Thanks for any insight.

Tom

Depends on how low you go. I have a conservative drop and have been running BC coil overs since last spring with no tire issues. Here is a link to my setup and alignment sheet. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/6427594-post113.html

Btw what part of MD are you in?
