ok well the situation is that i am about to purchase the eibach lowering springs but i am not planning to buy the rear adjustable arms to do proper aligment in the rear..... so my question is if i install the eibach springs, will i get extreme tire wear in the rear, even after trying to align it the best possible without the rear adjustable arms ??because if that the case then i might as well just leave it stock height right???

^^No, it won't be that bad. I have eibach springs on my GT and it's not super bad once it's been "aligned." It's not perfect in spec of course but the wear isn't excessive.

how much do the adjustable arms cost?
i mean, if theyre cheaper than a pair of tires, it might be worth it...

I have Intrax springs, which drop a bit lower than the eibachs. I don't have the adj. control arms, but I adjusted the rear camber in as close as possible (about a half a degree out of spec). Haven't noticed any abnormal wear yet.

NA's with only springs usually dont need the control arms.
