Not sure on the wheels, maybe axis attack?
that's Kenny's (damayor) 06 turbo'd sedan, he was on 350z H&R's and Donz Genovese wheels.

^ doesn't really look anywhere close to 4 inches, maybe 2-2.5 tops. Did you actually measure it? Are you rubbing when going over speed bumps?

he's at pretty much the same height I am at, which is about 2.5" drop all around.

what size spacers would you recommend? I'm about as low, maybe just a 1/4" higher.. I just ordered 20mm all around, you think that will be good?

^ I've been told 15mm front and 20mm rear, but I guess 20mm all around might be fine. Anyone else wants to chime in?

I guess if I rub with the 20mm in the front I could always trade on the local forum.

I'm going with a lower profile all around to lower the car alittle more and get rid of these huge stock sidewalls.

They're super comfortable, yet stiff at the same time. They really are alot better then stock. I don't know how sedan H&R's would match up to the coupe H&R's, but I can't imagine it's much different besides the drop.

They're not even that bad Lev, of course I avoid every pothole I can. but still, they're not even that bad when I do hit the unexpected pothole.

Hello all, nice to join a bunch of sedan enthusiasts!






Within the next month I'll be buying new coilover suspension. Any recommendations for a sporty shock, but as you can tell I am in Real Estate so I do need SOME comfyness to the ride. And I'd like to keep roughly the same drop, maybe a little lower but realistically I'd get adjustable. Thanks in advance

If you're looking for really comfortable coilovers that still can be stiffened up if needed I would suggest the Tanabe Pro 5s. I have them and absolutely love them. I've ridden in Gs with Megan Racing, BC Racing, Stance Gr+, and F&F and there is no comparison in my mind in how they ride.
