I have sportlines on my civic with stock struts, how long can I go with the stocks before they start turning into poo poo. And Eibach recommends an alignment kit with the sportlines, I don't have one and it doesn't seem like I need one, is anyone out there runnin sportlines, or any spring with about a 2 inch drop that does or doesn't have a alignment kit? Please reply on you experience.

I'm running sportlines also, got my ailignment done, and no probs with tire wear for me, dunno what the camber specs are on my car right now, but I guess with the Toe setting correct the camber wasn't sucha big deal with these tires. But I'm not rushing to buy a camber kit anytime soon. Some people have told me rims size would make adifference, but I dunno if there is any truth too that. I have a guy that keeps insiting if I was still rocking 17's I would have problems with the inside of my tires wearing out. I'm running 15's now with Kuhmo 712s 205/45's no adverse wear problems, wears evenly. As far as shocks turning to crap, I dunno. I'm running GSR stock shocks, dunno if they make a diff. or not, but my next upgrade is gonna be a set of Koni Yellows and a sway bar. After riding in my buddies integra with Sportlines, koni's and factory sway bars, I know I'm going that route, handles mucho better than my setup right now.
