I know this is an old thread, but I picked up some cheap z track 18's and took a daytime pic if anyone is interested in seing the raked drop with a more aggressive wheel setup



it sucks that 18's still look small on these cars

^^^Looks good , 18's do look a little small but I like that look! Better than my stock 17's on my X with stock suspension (gap is killing me!)

For an 06 X, what would would a good replacement spring setup be? I just want to close that gap a little. Would be nice if Eibach made a set for the 1st Gen X's (could only find them for the V36 X not the V35 X).

I have a family member that is an area manager for a large tire change, so getting them installed won't be a prob for me (does help to have that connection sometime )

They would look a lot better if you were dropped.

Has anyone gone from "regular" suspension to g sedan sport suspension? I want to tighten it up a little on our 05 rwd sedan but it is my wife's primary driver and she wants to keep a compliant ride. We used to have an 04 6mt that was lowered when we bought it but on what we did not know and she was not a big fan of how that rode.
Thanks

I did, as have a lot of others.
G/Z is a good way to close the gap a little and tighten it up a little.

Is there a big change in ride compliance with this setup? What wheel/tire setup do you have with that?

Slightly firmer, but not agressive. They are still oem springs so the ride wont change too much. I had 19x8 and 19x9.5 with 225/40/19F and 255/35/19R.

I also have Tokico HP shocks.
