Compared to stock w/ the 19's it's a bit harsher than stock. But honestly, not to the point where it's bad. I love the ride and it's really not that drastic of a change. I've been in some rough cars before and this setup feels like a caddy compared to others. It really gives you a better feel for the car and gets you more in tune with the road. It also makes you more cautious on the road actually aka watching out for potholes, debris in the road, etc. Go with the setup. It's perfect.
that looks very nice man. Are you running any wheel spacers?

Ooooh, too bad you selling your G man......hope you find a good M3
So I noticed that all the moddes you've done will be taken off prior to sale, Ill would be interested in buy some of them like Taillight, Suspension , and Nismo kit (probably just the front bumper). Let me know if you will be selling those, unless you already sold them

its a heavier car, I imagine the spring rate is higher.

i'm very pleased with the results.

I don't want to drop my car because I don't want to modify my sedan at all. JUst tint and rims is all I am going to do. Plus i don't want to put larger tires on to fill the gap only to mess up my speedo.
No problem. I owe my slick ride height to g35freak86 as I had sold my original z-cpe springs for similar reasons plus I thought I would rub. When he went out and ran the z-cpe springs with the same tires that I have which I recommended to him--I went for it. No rub, and great ride and looks great. I was ok on the stock height until I saw a bmw 330 sport or 335 or m3 and then and usually only then- I felt like a 4x4 truck

Any chance you can put up some quick pics of your car? Nothing fancy.... I'd just love to see how it sits. Thanks.

Just for the record (free speech and all) it is my belief that anyone who lowers these beautiful cars is either youthful or stupid.

Carry on . . . .
