G35 Coupe "Sport Package"
Suspension Gurus...Please Chime In

2005 G Coupe running 19x9.5 +19 245-35 and 19x10.5 +19 275-35. car is dropped approx. 1" F and R right now. do not have fenders rolled or any kind of bodykit except I run the 06-07 sport front. there appears to be room to go maybe 1/2" lower. so the car would be sitting approx. 1.5" lower F and R. do you think there will be any issues with rubbing or scraping? anyone with any pics of a similar drop would be appreciated. thanks in advance for your help.

damn, I posted this back in April and now one has responded. not one person is running a 1.5 drop front and rear and can offer any advice or experience. this forum use to be a great place to get information. I get more help with my daily driven Passat on PassatWorld. well if anyone is out there who could help, I would really appreciate it cause I have some springs that are begging to be installed. thanks in advance.

If you aren't currently rubbing, then my guess is lowering more with the natural camber you'll achieve will make it clear just fine. My only initial concern would be the 35 profile on the rears and the lack of roll on the rear fenders. As far as height wise, 1.5" isn't a huge drop by the forum standards. Clearance wise you shouldn't have too many issues daily driving.

your car will be fine unless youre running spacers.
if not maybe you should try stretching the rear tires a lil more.

do you think a 19x11 +25 with a 275-35 would help or is that roughly the same thing I have now?

I would go with a fender roll with that setup. Especially if youre only 1.5 in. Lower than stock
