i'm seriously considering getting these tires for my car.. but i've read that they are designed specifically for lowered cars. do these tires wear down faster or more unevenly on cars with stock suspension? i really don't think it should make a difference.. but i don't exactly have great knowledge of tires.. so i would just like to get a few opinions from here

Honestly i dont think it will make a difference with your stock suspension. Since your car is all stock suspension wise then you wont have any excess tire wear so these should be fine. For ex. all your camber toe ect.. is all in spec

I just got these installed on my GPs on Friday. I am not lowered yet and they are great tires. Not very noisy, tread pattern is awesome, and they have amazing grip.

Thats correct. It won't matter since you are at stock height. But they still grip way better than the stock A/S and at a huge fraction of the price.

^^ yeah if your car is lowered then you may have to worry about excess tread wear. but with stock suspension and everything else it should work fine. ima slap a set of these on my FG2 when my tries go out.
