What size tires are those?
20" cx9 wheels with nitto rubber
id prefer another 1.25" drop all around but the H&R seem to be the lowest springs I can find right now
Should have my white one cx-9 next week and I'll take pics

What I meant was what size tire (ie: 235x45x20)??20" cx9 wheels with nitto rubber

I've got the H&R springs. Had them on for about 12,000 kms and turns out I 'forgot' to get an alignment when I installed the springs.
I have just changed the wheels over and discovered quite bad inner tyre wear on 2 of the tyres.
Is this likely to be a result of the misalignment that can be rectified with an alignment? or a camber issue? yes, both
Is camber adjustable with the CX5? - yes
Is camber adjusted during an alignment?yes
And that is why many of us have held off on lowering springs as the drop puts the rear right on the edge of too much negative camber (and this is according to a tech I spoke with at H&R)I've got the H&R springs.

I have just changed the wheels over and discovered quite bad inner tyre wear on 2 of the tyres.-I'll bet they were the rears, where camber goes more negative.

Is camber adjustable with the CX5?-NO (contrary to previous post)

Power sliding... 2.0 SkyA-G...
I can get it to slide in first, or better just by shifting 1-2 or 2-3 gear at mid to high rpm in at least a 30deg turn as long as it's not understeering too much the dsc wont kick in, but I also have wider tires and stiffer springsWould like to see it actually done on dry pavement, or even wet without understeer or spinning the inside rear wheel before DSC kicks in... "TIPtronic" or not.
Only way I can get it to "slide" is heavily induced weight transfer and trail braking...
Sorry, but my tires were/are wearing just fine, with hard driving, power sliding included. The issue was probably lowering without an alignment (or low quality tire)
