Weird that you mention that you have less body roll. Reason being is that the Eibach Pro springs have a LOT softer spring rates than the OEM sport and even non-sport.
According to the " https://g35driver.com/forums/brakes-...w-updates.html "
Oem linear springs
G35 coupes with oem 17’s & 18’s
G35 sedan’s with sport suspension
350Z’s 2003/2004 (unrevised)
Front:314 Rear:342
Oem linear springs
G35 coupes 2005/2006 with oem 19’s only
350Z 2004.5 to 2006 (revised suspension)
Front:314 Rear:427
Eibach G35 Coupe progressive springs 1.1”/1” drop on G35 coupe
Spring rates in LBS initial/final front 229/337 initial/final rear 274/463
Disregarding the final rate (cause you'd have to push it pretty hard for the progressive springs to fully compress), they're a decent amount softer.
But regardless, it does look good. Maybe it'll settle in another .1-.2 in the coming week or so.

I don't recall what they are.. they are open end lugs that came with the rims with I got them. The only problem I have notice with open end lugs is that they tend to rust because water gets into them.

I want to say a big Thank u to APS MIKE for helping a brother out.
Over all the ride is not that bad. I'm gonna get an alignment this week and I hope that goes well. I hope I don't need camber arms for the front. Ebach pro kit springs and Ichiba rear camber.
The front is about 1.2 or 1.5 inch front and the rear about an inch 1.1. I have notice that it does have less body roll when taking corners.. I guess that because the center of gravity is lower. Since I have gotten them I have rubbed the bottom going into a shopping plaza. I guess I have to find a different tacobell hehehe.
Here is a couple of pic's (yea i know I suck at taking pictures.. I'm trying to learn)

looks great Sean, dont worry about the more low comments, some people dont understand that not every one can have a reflector scraper as a car
just get it aligned before you kill your tires, if you end up going to autoglitz, hit me up, i live 5 min away from there
its been a long time since we hung out, doesnt it feel like electronics lab was just yesterday?

Yea, I know I don't want to be limited to the places I can go, because the ground is not flat. The rest of these folks must never good anywhere I'm gonna try and get one this week. Probably friday or saturday. Where is autoglitz and how much they run (price)?
