Anyone rollin' 20's on factory 'sport' suspension? Pics?
I have the '06 sport 19's, on sport suspension and would like to put on 20's.
I fear that 20's on a sport suspension will look like a 4x4, but would like some proof. I don't know much about lowering my car (AT ALL I GUESS), and am wondering, if i do have to lower my car, is any part of the 'sport' suspension used? Or would it have been a complete wast of $$ to get the sport package? Thanks! And pics of 20's on sport suspension would be appreciated (and i suppose some 20's on 'other' suspension would help me decide). -chris |
I'm rolling on 20s
I'm on 20's right now with stock susp...
I'm still debating about lowering it 1/2". |
I had 20s on the stock sports suspension and had that 4x4 feeling. The wheel gap was huge in my opinion. I ended up with a set of Tein S-Tech springs which lowered the front 2" and the rear 1.3". I'm guessing the 20s lifted the car a good 1/2" so the net drop wasn't that much. I didn't need a camber kit to get my alignment back into the green (the dealership did my alignment) so I'm wondering if the sports suspension actually helped in that department.
Here is a picture of the 20s on the stock sports suspension: http://www.gamingmom.com/pix/car/gmom3.jpg Here is a picture after I put new springs on: http://www.gamingmom.com/car/springs.jpg Hope this helps! :) |

I dont know how much different 06 sport suspension is from '04
but my car doesnt look like a 4x4 I think dropping will enhance the look a lot but its not a must maybe tire size & offset plays a part in the look mine are: 255/35/20 fr (+20 I think) 285/30/20 rear +25 offset **edit** BTW I just noticed the black G above his pics after lowering it looks about the same as my stock height http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5...r/5cb4e3cb.jpg http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5...r/b9039151.jpg |

The chrome door handles and no tint look good on your setup

This is prior to a wash and my tint but its the only pic I have handy right now. I don't think it looks horrible at all though a small drop does change the look bigtime. I was about to pickup a tein basic kit but there is a 99% chance i am selling my coupe for a g37.

GamingMom,
Your missing splashguards in the rear. Which give the rear a more hunkered down look. And in my personal opinion the 03-05 years have the best spoiler to compliment 20" rims. I've seen many G's with 20" rims and the 06-07 spoiler doesn't look as good with them. IMHO |
Got anymore pics? |
If you use 20"s and you dont lower the car...the Center of Garvity will be way off. :eek:
