Need help deciding on lowering springs

ok well im trying to decide which springs i should get for my g35 coupe with oem 18's.

I narrowed down my suggestions and im trying to decide on whether to get:
Eibach sportline springs
tein s-tech springs
350z tein s-tech springs


I want to know which choice will be the best for looks, performance, and ride comfort. Also, i wanted to know if i would need a camber kit or if i would need a realignment. Thanks

Camber kit is recommended for all 3 of those. Im pretty sure the eibach sportlines would put you the lowest. But most people on here go with the s-techs, either 350z or g35. The 350z s-techs would put you lower out of the two. If you go with the sportlines make sure you pick up some tokico d-spec shocks. Idk how well the stock struts would handle with those springs.

One thing to keep in mind, no matter how you lower your car you're going to need adjustable a-arms and rear toe adjusters. Using any of the springs listed above you'll also need aftermarket shocks, the OEM shocks will soon fail. By doing a search under company's like Tein you'll be able to see just how low the S-Techs will lower your car, I believe it's 1" to 1.5" for those. My Tein H-Techs ride like OEM and I have all the suspension adjusters and adjustable Bilstein shocks, I'm lowered just under an inch. After completing this mod you'll NEED to have a 4 wheel alignment....
