Hi Zilvia,
I have an 89 s13 coupe with an open diff. I have been blowing through tires left and right. Could it be because they are cheap junkyard tires? Is it worth buying a decent tire? Would getting an LSD help a lot (in terms of tire wear) also, what tires would you reccommend? Keep in mind this is a KA24E...

Cut springs car hasn't been in an accident. It's always the drivers side rear wheel that gets torn up. Maybe I'll look into an alignment. Thanks man.

Do your tires rub while driving? Post a picture of your setup and yes get a alignment, new tires and make sure it's not rubbing anywhere on the inside of your wheel well..best way to check is by taking the wheels off and looking for any rubbing spots or anything clean/no dirt.then take a hammer or roller and make it work.otherwise raise it.

Tires don't rub in the rear while driving. Do you guys have recommended specs for a drift car alignment like mine (i know this is opinionated)? And no don't have adjustable suspension, control arms, RUCAs. It is pretty much all stock on lowering springs.

If you had a welded diff i would understand why your tires arent lasting very long but its open diff so might want to check your toe adjustment. You can sometimes get away with eyeing it. But highly recommend adjusting it on a alignment rack.
