If Vossen had the ones that I've been eyeing in 19'', I'd so be on it. But alas, only 20''s.

To OP,
If you are going with 20", a drop would be very nice. Kind of funny looking with out. The gap would be way bigger than the tire. My opinion. If you do drop you may want to also factor in cost of camber correction. FYI: The coilover choices are quite impressive at point in time. Starting at around $700-$800 so they are worth a look when compared to the simple spring replacement. Good luck.

Post photos if you get them!!!

The dealer just let me know, there direct fitment, and dont need any spacers.

Now that I posted this, Im questioning weather I should do a coilover drop first, or just get these guys, and drop later.

Guess Im going to do a little more reseach.. besides, Im in Mexico anyways ;-)

LOL totally agree! You will be looking like a lil tractor! But the wheels are gorgeous!!! Very nice pic!!! On a side note, I love the front lip on that coupe! Why can't the G-Sport have a lip like that for the sedans?!!!!! CRAP!!!

At this point in time, anything that applies to the G37coupe will work for our car, as well as whatever is available for the G35/37 sedan. Just be careful of the spring rates on whatever you choose.

I have the JIC and am very pleased with the set up thus far

I agree, lower it. Not sure how lowering you car will scrape your wheels. Hit curbs scrape your wheel.

The word FAIL = FAIL. It's so 3 months ago.
