Yes they do squeal but they are WEARING very fast, my alignment isnt too agressive but my normal tire pressure is around ~32 normally... Idk why they are wearing fast I can try to find my alignment and post the specs later but ive gone around a highway off-ramp thats like a huge 360 around 15-17 times in the last month with the tires squealing a little and ive noticed they have worn ALOT... these tires only have around ~8k miles on them... I mean they are supposed to last to roughly 25K with normal driving no? Im not on stock suspension either im lowered on Tein S. Techs as well as Koni Yellows...
try 35 psi..
if i were at home i would post up photos of spt with about 20 k miles on them, 4 track days, and a semi bad alignment..
are you drifting or doing donuts?
photos of tire wear?
my best guess is you did not align it after the drop, or make sure the fronts had dropped before you tightened the lower a arms.

Ill try to get pictures up soon... O and im pretty sure the suspension is all settled right and I did get an alignment so i rule those out... I have done a few donuts but that was on the rears and those still have way more tread then the front... so, im wondering if it is the Lower arms, which bolt are you exactly talking about. The lower control arm bolt but which one... BRB im gonna go take a picture of the tread and try to upload it...

I have also experienced pretty bad understeer around slower corners especially.. of course the car will oversteer as well especially as others have said with trail braking.. but still I was surprised by the amount of understeer would like to have more bite from those front tires..
first picture is understeer then an oversteer for fun
PS tires are stock dunlops
