*Edit Rims, Tanabe NF210 springs, exhaust.
Edit Rims on and 8500k headlight.
With Tanabe NF210 springs, the drop is 1 in the front and 1.3 in the rear. The alignment can back into spec. Magnaflow exhaust on the car (thx G35power for the useful information).
Before rims
Here are the new pics with rims and 8500K headlights.
The car look more even with the rims on. The back is not as low as it is with the stock rims. Here are some Kenstyle G35 pics which the rear is lower than the front too.

Q:
I was wondering, how was the alignment? did you need a camber kit for the rear?

Not a big fan of the stance of the car. Looks like its running up hill with it being lower in the rear than the front... Maybe a ncie wheel setup will correct/hide that? I like the front height, if the rear matched it could be a good option for me. The H&Rs are a bit low for me...
Thats great that you can align it back into spec though. Were you told that, or have you already had it aligned??

The rims are on guys.
Hokiesean: I got the car align already, and it is in stock specification. The car look more even with the rims on. I asked the guys at Tanabe about the stance of the car too. The explanation that they gave me is that the new Gsedan rear wheel ark is actually lower than the front so when you lower your car, you can see the different. I gues this is the same reason for the Eibach springs where guys are complaining about the rear is lower than the front.

With that said, knowing this, why the hell would Tanabe purposely design springs to lower the rear more than the front? To purposely make the car look even more azz heavy than stock? Their explanation makes no sense.

it is so that the car looks more level. overall, the rear is actually higher than the front. plus, it seem that the japanese style with the new g's is to tuck the rears....so they figure the rest of the world will go the same way.
