kev/cram - 350z h-techs. you're looking at about .75-1" drop all around and possibly staying in spec. its the drop i had on my 35.

 

350z htechs are for wimps!!!

 

^lol

Coils ftw

 

with 285's on the back would i be rubbing? no camber kit needed..?

 

+1 to Veronica and Lyndon's comments. The 350 Tein H.Techs are a bit more conservative than the S.Techs.

Not sure what you mean here?

This is an oldie, but a goodie. It's probably the most comprehensive spring information for our cars. It takes a bit of time to find read through all the data, but it's all there.

How wide is your wheel and what is the offset?

Lots of people get pretty close to the stock alignment specs with the H.Techs. If you know you won't be using any of the suspension pieces to correct your alignment, you might be better off with the H.Techs.

 

^True I am not looking to do the camber kits ect... this time. H-tecs might be the way if I want to stay close to stock. Not looking to destroy my side skirts. Id like to lower her a lil but have much stiffer springs. So what will give me a half inch drop with a stiffer feel?

 

^ with coils you dont have to go all the way down. You can adjust to your pleasing.

 

^ Thats what Im looking for if they are stiffer than stock springs.

 

I thought H-techs had a softer spring rate than stock, but people are recommending them even though you said you want a stiffer spring.

 

by bouncing off my tires, i'm referring to hitting dips in the road, and my fenders rubbing my tires. it's tearing the hell out of my new tires

F: 19x9.5 +17
R: 19x10.5 +18

riding on invo's 255/35/19 & 285/35/19

thanks for your input

oh and sorry to steal your thread kev!! haha

 

g35 h-techs are softer than stock which is why 350z h-techs are what most people use.
drop to 275/35/19. whats your rear camber at?

 

^^maybe for x-mas i'll treat myself to new rears. camber is at stock setting. just got an alignment at tire kingdom..not sure what they set it to.

 

Ahhh...Thanks for clarifying.

 

I see.

Easier to just say that your tires rub...

You have the exact same wheel width and tire sizes that I use, except that my offset is +22 all around.

It's hard to say without seeing your car, but I suspect you'll need to roll your fenders. I did and my tires are further inside than yours.

I wouldn't recommend going to a stiffer spring to try to stop the tires from rubbing over bumps. There will always be bumps that bang your tires into the wheel well. You need to make sure they don't rub.
