Paul said if they decide to make these they will shoot for a design and ride like the JIC Vip Coilovers.

If you guys just want to save time, just shoot Paul an email and express your interest/desire for a comfortable and reliable coilover for your X.

Keeping my fingers crossed.
I sent him an email on 3/20 and still have not heard a response!!

18" rims and stock suspension

This may be a strange request, but does anyone have pics of a 05 g35x running aftermarket 18" rims on a stock suspension? with all the issues with lowering I was wondering if anyone went to this setup? I apologize if this is a bit out of context for this thread.

18"

I mentioned 18" b/c that was what I was thinkiing of for myself. But I would be interested in any pics that are on stock suspension and running aftermarket rims. I am thinking about doing this myself, and unfortunately sites like tirerack are not realistic enough to see how big the gap is, or if it would look awkward.

19" rims are optimal for the X IMO. 20" rims also look good, 18's are too small.
