So by lost do you mean you removed it and cannot find it or that its worn out? If the later they have a warranty on them for much longer than that.

You're not going to. These are OEM tires that happen to be EAF (expensive as f***). Folks either wear them bald first or sell them or give them away by the 4's.

It'd be a good excuse to move up to PSS's, though.

If you aren't sure what you want I will determine the best specs based on usage of vehicle. Lemme know guys as I have never offered this to this particular community before.
What's the price range for corner balancing and a performance-oriented alignment.

If we're talking only a few hundred $$, I'd be interested.

I'm trying to get the mod/tuning costs which are well south of $1k taken care of before I dive into any of the near $1k or over $1k stuff (like coilovers, FI, headers, etc).

I figure if a set of camber bolts on the front (I've checked rear camber bolts/bushings costs and they're expensive!) and an alignment is good enough if I'm keeping stock ride height for now, then it'd be worth it to get the most out of it.

headers are south of 1k unless you plan on getting nameless headers

Do you have coilovers now? If not corner balancing is out of the question anyway. If you do I am trying to keep it at a price point between $300-$400. A lot depends on what your specific setup is. The few places that do corner balancing are usually in the $500 range without an alignment.

Not south enough if going with quality headers (JDL or Nameless).

No, I don't have coilovers yet. I plan to eventually, but not right now.

I passed what looked like a stock Ultramarine FR-S on the AZ51 North this morning. Don't think the driver is on here. She didn't even blink when I moved over and waved.
