Swift Sport Springs

My wheels are arriving in a week and I need to get my G dropped properly, so after reading up on springs through past threads I have decided to go with Swift. I dont want to mess with camber/toe and iv read that swift is very good with thier drop. I cant find any vehicle specific Swift springs for my X model G but i did find a pair for the 08-10 INFINITI G37X SEDAN, so my question is will they fit on my 2008 G35X sedan??.....These are the specs stated on the sellers site...

•Swift made Sport Springs keeps your quality ride you get from showroom, and adds a sporty feel and lower ride height for sport driving enthusiasts and style minded drivers who demand only the best.
Swift did not start developing Sport Springs by trying to drop the ride height. Unlike others who only care about style, Swift approached to create lowering springs with 3 rules. ◦Keep or improve a smooth comfortable ride.
◦Increase handling, control, and performance.
◦Lower the vehicle within the each vehicle’s usable stroke.

•Drop Rates: ◦Front: 1.3"
◦Rear: 1.0"

•Vehicle Applications: ◦08-10 INFINITI G37X SEDAN


Part #: 4N907
Price: $335.00

Not sure if this will help but maybe
I bought springs for my 09 G37 RWD that were for 07-08 G35s, these dropped my front
more than advertised since the 09 has the 7AT. The 7AT weighs about 150 pounds more than the 5AT so they set the front springs at a stiffer rate on G37s w/ 7ATs. I would assume that if you bought the G37 springs for the X that it would also have stiffer front springs and you'll have the opposite effect, yours will drop less in front than advertised. Make sense?

At any rate, worked out great in my case, I wanted a raked drop, not a drop w/ the back too low relative to the front.

i have an 07x and i have the swift springs installed

from the ground to the fender
rear 27 in
front 27 in

not really sure what other measurments to take



I bought them from fred beans the kit was 08+ g35/7x (I was told 08 and 07 have the same suspension so it would be all good)

no complaints so far

Yeah truee but look around and take your time and trust you will find a good set for a good price, My 03 sedan i was able to find a set of coils and F&R camber kit. for $625 and only had 6k on so i will be doing the same for my 07 but this time im going AIR so ill see what i find.
But also thats IMO

Springs are sick until you want to go lower lol

rear camber was able to get into spec, but the front is a degree or two away from spec

I didnt buy a camber kit yet, I might just live with it

From the front it looks low as sh*t

So this is what the guys selling the springs responded back

"It is not recommended that you purchase this for your G35X sedan. If you do purchase you can do so at your own risk. Swift only advertises these springs for the G37X. Please let me know if i can help you out with anything else. Thanks"

I got the ones from this thread: https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-sed...t-springs.html

It says they were for 08+g35x, someone on the forums told me that the 08x and 07x had the same suspension.

I would say go for it
