Swap 350z revised rears for Stech rears on an X

Would 350z revised rear springs raise my X up approx .5" over my Stechs?

Not sure, but let's come at this the other way...if as per the sedan sticky z springs drop a RWD 1" and AWD 0.5" more than that, how much higher is that than sedan S-techs?

Sedan S-tech drop a RWD 1.3" and an X 1.8" I may just stick with it. Took pics today (blackberry + rain) and its not too bad. New tires going on soon so we are going to inspect the left side of the suspension again. Thoughts on how it looks?? Right side is 1/4" passenger is lower.

Looks great IMO, you could even drop the front a lil more...what tires you running up front? If you're running 235/35 or even a smaller sidewall (225/35?) maybe that's why you have a bit more gap.

Thanks, I am not worried about the front. Left to right is uneven for me on the rear. fronts are 225/40s. Rears will be 255/35.
