Tyre wear
I have weird tyre wear on the inside of my back left tyre, any ideas what could be causing this. 2000 Civic Vti Vtec, would 17" Wolfrace and aftermarket lowerings springs have anything to do with it?

Making sure the alignment is right is the 1st thing to do. He could have alot of toe in from the lowering springs. Too much toe out or toe in wears out the tires faster than camber.

Get a camber kit, and make sure that beast is aligned perfectly.

A camber kit is not always necessary.
