I'm sorry, I just can't help but laugh every time I see a car like that, this time being no different. You just took a brand new car and made it look like something out of that movie CB4. Even worse drivers are gonna have to get stuck behind you every time you go over a little bump, driveway or railroad tracks..

Sorry if I sound like an azz, but I am just giving my honest opinion.

So does this mean cars that come just as low from the factory like Corvette's, etc) need to be raised so people don't get stuck behind them at little bumps, driveways, and railroad tracks?

It doesn't ride any worse, if anything, it rides better. It's the same height as a BMW, and it doesn't have any rubbing issues, and i've gotten it sideways quite a bit. I think it should have been like this from the factory, with aftermarket wheels, it wouldn't look as low in some pictures, it depends on the angles really.

Wheels will go really nice with your lowering. I would highly recommend 20's for this new Gen. The car is slightly larger than previous Gen. In result, 19's looks too small for this car. 20's will looks perfect no doubt about it.

Nice...But are you sure you should be parking next to that T-Bird with the nose damage? It's got some pretty big doors!

Too low in the back, but still looks better than stock.

One should have a tough time getting stuck behind those cars, if they're driven properly.

I have not seen the above G in person, so maybe it isn't all that low. But I have seen on a few occasions some lowered cars get flooded out in somewhat high water and frankly it made my day as I cruised past them in my stock Maxima with water 3 inches from the side mirrors...(Tropical storm Allison in Houston 2001)

If you have 4was and lower the ride height with springs does this mess up the system? also what else can get messed up by lowering the car?
