Someone could correct me on this if I'm wrong.



I don't think coils would be ideal to drive in the winter. Anything that's adjustable is always hard to configure. Think about changing your suspension and you had a few or so bolts that were hard to remove. Same thing with the coils except the adjusters would be hard and you might even ruin the threads since they are exposed to the salt and what not.
not true. BC coils, and its seen worse snow then whats in the picture no problems. as long as the roads are somewhat plowed good to go.

Just ordered BC coilovers for my '05 X

Got front and rear camber arms too in case I want to go lower than 1-1.5"

Do I need my rear fenders rolled if I'm running coupe 19s with 245/40/19 tires?

Also, those who have BCs already: When the rears are at max height, how much lower is the car than stock?

what springs will make my X sit like my RWD G35 seen here ? See below I don't like the stance revised 350z springs did on my silver X.

I don't see why I would need coilovers ??

which Eibachs will give me the proper stance ? any spring I can use to just lower the front some more ? I'm fine with the rear.

you want proper stance, coilovers will give you that. You want to do springs, need to buy 2 different sets.

2 different sets of springs front and back? I thought you could get it right with the Eibach springs sold for our X's.

I will be running this exact set up myself. I'm also not sure whether or not I need to roll my rear fenders but ill be finding out soon. I have about a finger gap.
