Default what kind of suspension upgrade do i need'

i have a 1995 honda civic ex and am ridind on 17's. i have replaced these parts on my suspension:
these are all separate times i had my car in the shop.

1.right& left lower control arms & ball joints 9-28-07
2.passengerside inner & outter tie rod ends plus lower strut bushing 7-2-07
3.driver side inner tie rod end, lower control arm inner bushing & bushing for lower strut 1-17-07
4.half shaft front left 4-26-02
5.front struts(both sides) 2-4-03
6.right cv shaft 11-8-01
and my tires still wear uneven, and now the driver side has this bad sqeeking sound -coming from it.
i think those 17's are bad on my suspension so what could i upgrade to without lowering it, it low as it is. thank you

so when you replaced all these suspension components did you get an alignment? if you didn't that would be your issue right there. i would probably get one anyway, and be sure that your tire pressure is even as well

yes it was aligned each time. what is the tire pressure really suppose to be on 205/40/17 it says not to exceed 36psi but whenever i have it check by a tire shop they jam 40 in them?

are they installed correctly? and make sure the 'toe' is aligned correctly as well as the camber
