Red face help with dropping the g and adding spacers

I'm planning on buying tein h springs which will lower my car f 0.6in and r 0.3in
I'll do the rear spring mount mod to even it out
my question is what spacers should i get after the drop?
i have the 350z anniversary 18" wheels
should i do 30mm(rear) and 25mm(front) any fender rolling if i do that?
or 25mm all around?

What are the offsets on those wheels? I'm assuming 30+/33+. I am running OEM 19's on 20mm/25mm front/rear. Soon I'll be lowering my car on S-techs and I will 100% need to roll my fenders. So I would recommend rolling your fenders before you drop your car. And 20mm/25mm combo gives the car a great look. If your offsets are 30/33 like mine, it gives the car an aggressive stance. One more thing, be sure to purchase camber arms. Before I put on my spacers, was running about -1.7 in the rear. After the spacers I was at -1.9. So they do add a few tenths more of negative camber. Good luck!

You can run the Tein 350Z H-Techs which will lower your G slightly more than
the G35 H-Techs. I believe the difference is about 1/2" but regardless of how much you lower your G35 you'll NEED a camber it front/rear to bring your suspension back to OE specs....tires aren't cheap!

Id also say go with the 350z tien h-tech, plus rear springmount mod. Then at the least get a rear camber kit. 25mm in the front and 30mm in the back is perfect imo, but you will need your rear fenders rolled. You may not need em rolled if you dont do the rear springmount mod but not 100% sure on that.

I'm running stock 10 spoke g35 coupe 19's ... I'm looking to do spacers and Tein S Tech springs. Any suggestions on the spacers for this setup? Should I go with G coupe S-Techs or 350z s-techs? I'm thinking 25mm front, 30mm rear spacers. Please let me know... Also - anyone with pics of a similar setup would be great!!

How much lower will the 350z s-techs be then the G35 s-techs?

The G35 s-techs show a greater drop then the 350z's???
