Yea that about right. Took maybe 1-2 weeks before I got an Alignment done, Just to make sure they settled nice and good, and yea 1/4 inch sounds about right!

Oh yea, All those Pics are like 2-3months after I Installed the Springs. So that may look similar with your M45 Rims, But the G37 Rims have the perfect offset, and I don't need to add spacers, they sit perfectly flush with the fender edges!

A gave mine a week before alignment and they haven't done anything after that and they have been on for a year already. I am actually surprised at how even my tire wear has been.

After two weeks my springs settled about another 1/4 in the rear only.

After an alignment, the rears are out about -1.6, -0.8 being the max. Not sure about the fronts though. The idiot who did the alignment never provided me with a spec sheet.
