Default G2 Spring Question

I just ordered G2 super springs for my car because i wanted it lower but not too low. The other day some one told me that anytime u lower a car it causes the tires to wear out very rapidly. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> I tried to explain to him that the only that happens is if its totally slammed. Am i right????

If a car is aligned properly, tire wear is not an issue at all.

I quoted Louis Gigliotti. So I think you got the definitive answer ...
