G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Just looking at this picture makes me break out in a cold sweat and hyperventilate.

Hey folks,
I am looking to pull the trigger, and put some lowering springs on my daily driver. It is a 2008 G35x, and is running Niche Sport Milan 20'son it. Cousin had a 09 G37x, and used Eibach's and recommended putting a rear camber kit in also.
I am looking for some input/recommendations before purchasing if someone could give me some sound advice, it would be greatly appreciated! Eibach, Tanabe, or Tein's? Just the rear Camber kit or can I get away without it. Consensus seems to say I will tear up tires otherwise... and I would need to realign most likely I imagine then thereafter.
Cheers!

You might post this same question in the suspension sub-forum over in the second gen sedan section. I have no idea about drops on second gen sedans but the predominate theory is that any drop can work without a camber kit, just depends on how often you want to replace tires. On the first gen sedans we say that with any drop of an inch or more a kit is recommend F/R and toe adjustment kits are as well to be able to maintain close to stock alignment specs.
I'm dropped 3" in an 05 sedan and I'm in factory specs on all 4 corners with my set-up, SPL V3 front camber arms, Stillen rear camber arms, SPC rear toe bolts. I wear tires evenly and get a lot of mileage out of them.

Never liked the blacked out sidemarkers, looks like you have 2 dark band aids there. But it's your car so enjoy.
