Bags

I was just wondering if anyone had bagged their sedan. If so, what do you think would be the sickest offset in order to let my G lay perfectly on the ground. I was thinking about 19's but i really wanted my G to sit as low as possible to the ground.

19 are too small for a "VIP" look. 20s are the way to go.

I wouldn’t care about "VIP" look... I just like the convenience of ride height adjustment and getting over steep inclines... I'm not that low and I cant even get into Starbucks on Magnolia and Trask I go there every damn day so when I take my car I'm SOL (luckily most days its a truck).

Are you ready to give up your performance car for height adjustment?

^I was thinkin the same thing. To me, bags = show car....then again, I'm not to savy when it comes to knowing about bags. I've always thought it basically ruins the ride when it comes to performance

you can get coilover than then get these. They havent made anything for a g or z, but once I finally get some coilover made for the X, I am going to try them out. I know the guy as well, so I can keep you guys posted if anything happens.

I considered that and for that reason never really thought about getting them... however, my tattooist and Viet both have them and both seem to think handling is pretty good. I've ridden in Viet FX a few times and didn’t notice anything negative... granted they weren’t real spirited drives, but he says on canyon runs it does well.

So I'm contemplating it.

When you are as low as Viet and have 300+mm wide tires it helps a lot. I think for a car like yours you are much better off with a good set of coil-overs.
