Should I lower my G? Pic inside

Hello people, never had a chance to post up my G after install rims. I'm thinking about lowering the car with teins springs tomorrow for a few months and go with coilover later. I know with teins springs it only lower about an inch all around, now is that a signifficant different compare to the way it is now or should I wait and get coilover? Thanks for the input!

seriously wheel gap looks so bad sometimes I'd really look into getting somenew springs for it. Since you have the front lip i'd look into getting some 350z h-tech springs... .9 front and .6 rear on the drop... it would make it look very nice.. tein s-tech would be good too but for me its too low... i have them on my car and even with careful driving i scrape a lot where i live

Go coilovers, or at least upgrade your shocks as well if you're getting springs. 90% of everyone on here is content with a $150 set of springs and they don't give a hoot about handling and height/damping adjustability, however. Whatever suits your needs.

I plan on only dropping with springs for around 5-6 months and then upgrade to coilovers. It look kinda funky w/out lowering (lots of wheel gap), eventually I'll upgrade to coilovers anyway but not anytime soon. So probably tomorrow I'll install the springs just to fixs the wheel gap problem. Thanks everyones for the tips. Many thanks!
