Hello, I'm Danny.

It is possible when the new spring and shock were installed something was misaligned causing the camber adjustment to be off causing your inside tire wear.If you take your car to a tire shop or repair facility have them check/adjust the camber setting.Here is a tutorial showing tire wear:
