We had a baby girl Friday! We named her Allie - 6lbs. 6oz. 19.25" long. My son and I are now out numbered in the family.
By the way, I decided to go with the Falken 451's on the rear. 245/45-16. I need to put a few miles on them and I will let you all know what I think of them.

First of all... Congrats on the new addition to the family!!!
How much did discount charge you to mount and balance tires?
About the inside wearing, wait untill you have a 2.2 degree of camber in the rear. I need new tires soon.
On a side note, I finally saw Tobi's exhaust last night. It looks and sounds amazing!!! If the dyno proves some kind of power gain (even if it's more than -17RWHP HAHA) i will look into getting one. The exhaust looks awesome from behind and the tone is not to loud at idle and below 6000RPM. But above 6000 it's another world.

Falken 451 - $104.99ea.
$1.50 for the environmental fee
$4.00 for Disposal
$11.13 for Uncle Sam
Total installed = $226.61
They charged me $20.00 for the lifetime balance on the fronts, but said they would refund that when I replace the fronts through Discount. I should clarify that the wearing was on the inside fronts, not the rears.
Can you post a pic of the exhaust?
