I recently sold my 19" wheels, and was shocked at the state of the rear tyres once the wheels were removed.

The inside of the rear tyres were completely bald, after only 7 months. The rest were perfect.

They were installed the same time as the car being lowered and the new rims being put on, but I didn't get the rear wheels aligned.

Moral of the story:

When you lower your car and change your rims, get your rear wheels aligned!!!

When you lowered your car . The camber become more negative.. You can't do much about the wheel alignment .even if you did adjust the rear stock camber arm.. I use too run my own tyres store

That sucks

4 wheel alignment every 10,000kms = routine maintenance. You should also do it when your car arrives from factory since the alignment can be screwed when they tie the wheels down during transit.

$100 in this can save you hundreds more in not having to replace tyres early.
