Also, because I dont have the money, I cant invest in coil-overs.

Pro kit is a 1"-1.5" expected drop and sportline is an expected 1.7"-2.3" drop. I've seen pictures with the pro kit and the drop is hardly noticeable, in my opinion. But im afraid the sportline will be too major of a drop.

As I mentioned in post 27, that drop looks very similar to the Prokit Drop. Looks just like my G.
Anyone who can't see the difference between stock height and an Eibach Prokit drop isn't looking hard enough because it's easily noticeable.
Look in my garage LINK (no camber kits...no wear problem)

If there's any way you can just hold off a while longer and get the coilovers you'll be happier in the end. You'll get the exact drop you want and most have adjustable damping to get the ride just right too. Plus you won't have to worry about blown struts. I went the spring route and now have coilovers, I'll get some money back selling the springs but If I had to do it all over again I'd just bite the bullet and get coils, even if it meant waiting a couple months to save the money up. Another thing to consider is you could start off w/ the coils set for a mild drop and then save up for camber arms/toe kit if & when you want to go lower (just to make it easier on your budget from the start).

Thanks for the advice! I've thought about coil-overs a lot, but I have 100,5** miles so im not sure coils will be a lasting investment. Decisions decisions!
I really like the drop on yours! But your wheels are an inch bigger than mine so im concerned it wont look the same

As long as you get the wheel offset right, it will look just like mine and the one in White G37 pics you posted.

EDIT: Your fronts (8.5" +35) will stick out 3mm more than mine and the rears (9.5" +40) 2mm more than mine.
Mine are 20x8.5 +37 and 20x10+48

Stillen CAI for sure! Unless you live in an area like mine (Upstate NY) where the weather is terrible and not 75 and sunny all the time. I would go with intake that sits in your engine bay like a K and N (Don't want any water getting in your intake!). As for exhaust a really cheap mod that will make it sound great is a simple muffler delete. Look it up on youtube! You can have a local shop pipe it back and weld the tips back on for about 90$. I haven't noticed a decrease in power or acceleration from doing it like some may say.

My new avant garde wheels came in the mail today (
) and I took them to discount tire to get tires and have them mounted. The manager looked at my car and took me inside to do a write up on the purchase. When he asked what type of car it was I said infiniti G35S. He looked at me funny and asked me again what i was driving. After telling him again he said that there is no such thing as a G35S. We argued back and forth and he refused to believe that there is such a thing as a G35s...? odd.
He also told me that there are no tires that fit on the wheels I have. I told him that there have to be because I've seen them on a G before. Also because the site i got them from offered to have tires fitted on the wheels and then shipped to me. I left with no tires and a slight bit of anger.
So, my question to my fellow drivers is what tire will fit?
I have Avant Garde M550 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 with 35mm/40mm offsets.
Thanks guys!
