I got my 20's and a week later I dropped my G with an Eibach Pro kit. With the 20's you will notice more road noise making it into the interior. The ride is a bit rougher but not too much. When I dropped it I noticed a bigger difference in ride type. If you hit a bump of go over a speed bump you will feel it a lot more. I do suggest you drop it though. Without the drop my G looked like a Subaru Outback, it looked like I was about to go offroading because it was sitting so high. That may just be a matter of my taste. All in all, I am very happy with my choice and would do it again. You just have to take it easy over bumps and make sure you don't hit a bump while your wheels are turned or you could hit your tires into the fenders.

I have 20s. I'm also lowered on 350z H-Techs. I'd have to agree that my car rides smoother than stock now. Get the 20s and don't worry about that ride harnish, you won't even notice it.

Talking yea I noticed

Just put 20's on this week and yes it is rougher. Not bad though. You will definantly notice more road noise. However we thrive on that kind of stuff!!! If you want a smooth ride buy a old Caddy and cruzzz. Otherwise suck it up, put on the 20's and slam tha thing!!

I've had 20's for over a year now and they are not that bad at all. It is a sportier ride and you will feel more, but it's worth it!

20's look just plain sick on the G...the ride is fine..i really didnt feel a difference after going from 18's..but trust me the looks you get are totally worth it..only downside is you will feel that your g doesnt push as hard anymore..but if your going for 20's then your obviously not heading performance wise

heres my car on stock suspension
