Just ordered new fronts. Noticed the cord showing on the inside edge of the tire:eek: I was going to go with a plus size tire but $79 for the OE fronts is hard to pass up. Just over 27k on this set. Not too bad for a car that's got Eibachs.

Go with Carfixer's alignment specs, they'll wear much better.

Search "Carfixer's alignment".

HINT: It's in the Reviews section.

Yep, that'll fix the inside wear problem.

And you CAN get VERY close even on a lowered car.

Ive never has a wear issue with or without lowering springs.
Ive always used stock alignment specs as well.

Would these alignment specs be good for a pre-2003 Panther?

I'm as close to Carfixer specs as they could get with the Eibachs. I got great wear on the tires considering the amount of Autocross events I went to plus my daily commute through some horrible torn up areas of highway.

I got 28k on my last pair of stock fronts with Carfixer's specs.

I Just Replaced All 4 Tires. $723 Out The Door At Costco.
Fronts Lasted 32,000 This Time Around, Rears About 16,000.
Left Rear Looks Like It Had A Lot Of Tread Left, So I Kept It As An Emergency Tire. The Front Tires Are Like $162 Each now. That Did Seam High, But Includes The Warranty And Lifetime Balancing.
This Is My Second Set Of Fronts, And 4th Set Of Rears.
I did Car Fixer's Alignment When I Replaced The Front Shocks. This Was The First Time I Had Any Inside Wear On My Tires, One Reason I Replaced Them.
