Finally lowered the G35x with Eibach Pro Kit!

First of all thanks to b2autodesigns for the good deal on the Eibach springs. I ended up not needing the Eibach rear camber kit I bought though.

I finally lowered the G! 1.4" Front and 1.3" Rear. It has settled some since these pics were taken. Before anyone asks yes the rims are staggered and no issues at all. Its running -1.8 camber in the front and -1 in the rear with no rubbing issues and 0 toe all around.

Rim/Tire info:
Ikon P58 with Deliente tires
Front - 20 x 8.5 +35 with a 245/35/20
Rear - 20 x 10 +45 with a 275/30/20

Before

After





I love the stance and the ride is still really nice but with way better handling.

Also put on some K&N Intakes


Custom Exhaust is up next...

Looks great after the drop! How is the ride vs. stock? Does it hit the bump stops/bottom out or anything?

Thanks man! The ride is still really nice for daily driving its not harsh or anything. Not much of a difference in comfort and feels the same to me. In the turns though it handles amazing! A lot of the body roll is now gone. Haven't bottom out yet.

blah, clicked the link hoping you got new wheels along with the drop lol. Drop makes it look better regardless.
As long as you like it.
Now remove that front plate thing!! I just got a front plate ticket again here in NY and you guys are lucky enough to not need one lol

Nice drop, great stance, especially on an X. Those rear tires really fill the well nicely. Never heard of that brand tire before, are they any good?

since you have the chrome window sills a ss or chrome lip would have looked better on the wheels. maybe you're gonna vinyl wrap the sills to complete the look? regardless, drop looks great man!

Looks good. I looks like you got some blue in the engine bay.

Its my girls car she ordered that plate without me knowing. Once its mine it will be gone. I'm about to shave the plate bracket off the front of my WRX to make it look cleaner.

Thanks man and I never heard of them either before I did some research. Two guys started the company one quit from michelin and the other from falken. The tires look identical to the Falken FK452s which is what I like to run on my WRX. She put 8000+ miles on them last year and they all wore evenly and only lost 1/32. They also handle really well just like the FK452s.

Once she gets a truck this car is mine and it wont be silver anymore. I've always wanted a black car so its getting painted black. I'm a professional detailer and black paint is my speciality. The rims will be powerdcoated black, tinted tails, black out the headlight housing. debadged, vinyl or paint the chrome, black grill, etc...

before I paint it I want to boost it though so I dont scratch the paint putting twins on it

here is a pic of a srt4 after i buffed it:

the back is a perfect drop. when you look at the front angle it looks like the front isn't lowered but then you see it from the back and it looks great. maybe some front spacers are in order to pull the wheel out a hair to really show how flush it really is?

Not a fan of spacers just dont trust them. The springs have settled since those pics but the front sit pretty flush. I'll get some pics of different angles in the next couple of days.
