Dropping My Car...

2005 G35 Coupe

20 x 8.5 and 20 x 10 staggered rims on the car

I don't want the tire to show on my car, just the chrome of the rim.

What springs should I use?

I was looking at the Eibach Pro Kit...

Any suggestions?

How are you not going to have the tire show on the car? If you mean only at the top, and you want it to tuck, the only option is an air ride suspension, if you drop it that low you won't be able to drive around normally.

WAY too low! You won't be able to turn let alone drive over any bump.

^ +1 that will be too low and tire wear will suck. Eibachs will not give you the extreme tucked look you are looking for (check link in my sig). If you want to slam the hell out of it put aribags on it.

im running the eibach prokits. Its not the lowest drop, but at least is will give you an idea if you want to go with a lower spring.
