you really ought to have the tires rebalanced and your alignment checked, because the settings on eric's Z and your civic are bound to be different. just my .02

Those wheels and tires are from my old Civic. You think I'd sell him wheels that were made for a RWD? Come on man, I'm not a crook!!!

If that happened while I owned them, I am sorry. Don't know why that would have happened. I never experienced any of the problems (noise, etc.) that you are describing. Don't forget your camber kit. Absence of this will cause bad things to your tires. Remember that those wheels are two sizes bigger than stock!
