Which one would you get?

I just recently not to long ago picked up some aftermarket 19" wheels for my G35 Coupe. Anyways, I badly need a drop. I narrowed my search down to three and decided on either:

1- Eibach Pro Kit Lowering Springs
2- Tein H. Tech Lowering Springs
3- Tein S. Tech Lowering Springs

Which one would you all recommend me getting? Thanks.

If you get the H techs, make sure you get the set for the 350Z. I like the springs I went with (refer to sig) and they gave me a perfect drop.

I know for the G35 Coupe, the drop in the front for the H.Techs is 0.6" and 0.3" in the rear and I believe that is to little but does the set for the 350Z fit offer more of a drop? I know the Eibach is 1.1" front and 1.0" rear and that seems like it would be perfect, no?

How much of a drop do they add? Eibach Pro Kit adds more of a drop, correct?

^^ that's nuts. I got my springs for 99 bucks, and had a buddy isntall them for 50. the Z h-techs are better because of the spring rates. the g h-techs are too springy or something like that.

refer to this thead, it helped me out alot.

H techs give around 0.5" drop and ride softer than stock, which for a sport coupe isn't ideal.
Pro kit give ~ 1" drop all around and still within factory specs. Ride is 15% darder than stock. Camber kit may be a good idea.
S techs add a more aggressive drop > 1-1.5" which increases neg camber and definitely requires camber kit.

Chad @ Riverside Infinit, He's on these forums, and he hooks it up! I don't know if he can still get that price, because that was close to 5 months ago, but you could always ask him.
