The larger wheel well gap caused by the shorter sidewall also makes the car look less lowered than the other Eibach Gs at first glance. That's why some people are telling you to lower it. They're fooled by the wheel well gap.
Still, great overall look and choice of rims.

There's also about a 1" difference btw the stock rears and your 275-30-19s. So, if you were to measure your car compared to another G with Eibach springs, your car would be about 1/2" lower.

Thanks for the info!
I was thinking of going 245/40 in the front and 275/35 for the rears.
this might end up making it a little higher.< Im considering this cuz of the massive bump I keep hitting getting into my building garage.

It will also eliminate some of the wheel well gap and give those hot rims some additional protection against potholes and stuff.
245/40/19 f
275/35/19 r
Also, this should eliminate that minor yet annoying steering wheel wobble!

Please read this Hans. I ordered 245/40/19's on the fronts of my car and it looked so stupid I got rid of them and went with 245/35/19. Actually, since your wheel is a 9" front as opposed to my 8.5", it might look fine. Interested in seeing pics.
One thing though, 245/35/19 looks too thin on mine. 235/40/19 would be perfect IMO but impossible to find

They should look perfect on your G!
