Tire screeching while turning at low speeds
This is regarding my 2004 coupe. Like the title suggests, I can hear light screeching (basically chirps) when I turn at low speeds. Obviously, it gets worse at higher speeds. Is this normal? Now I have no upgrades on suspension on this car, i'm running stock springs, shocks, and wheels.
And my driving style is pretty conservative. I rarely rev beyond 3000RPM before I shift, and I never gun it when the light turns green.

Alignment?, Yes.
You're experiencing excessive toe-out (insufficient toe -in)
The inside tire unloads on a turn, and with unsufficient toe-in trys to turn sharper than it bretheren on the outside. The screeching noise will get louder (or do it more frequently) when you drive over painted lines and smooth(er) pavement.
If it were the outside tire, you'd hear a noise more akin to scrubbing (deeper tone)
