Hi,

My 95 S6  is going through tires really fast (10,000 mi. or less).  The inn=
er and outer edges of the front tires wear more rapidly than the centers.  =
I maintain 3-4 psi above the max rated psi of the tire to combat this.   Th=
e alignment has about 1 deg of toe and .3 degrees of negative camber on the=
 front tires.  My question is will changing the suspension (lowering the ca=
r) have any effect on tire wear?

The current setup is 225/ 50/16, bilstein, and stock springs.

Also I am in need of a front corner marker light on the drivers side.  If a=
ny of you have one left over from going to clear corners let me know how mu=
ch you want for it.

Thanks,
