And I get a bit of a (for lack of a better word) wiggle,shimmy... From 0-10mph... Is this normal? I've heard about a lot of Lexus AWD vehicles doing this when lowered but nothing on this forum. So just curious if any other lowered X owners have noticed this. Preferably ones lowered on H&R's. But open to all replies. Thanks

Also how does the stance look to you guys? It seems a bit of to me. The rear seems much lower than the front. Which I thought was supposed to be the opposite. Sorry the pics are on my slanted driveway which should ultimately favor the front gap. I don't know... Thoughts?

Front gap

Rear Gap

Whole Car

 

Did you get an alignment? If not, the car will handle pretty poorly. I did my eibach drop in winter and you wouldn't believe how bad it handled until I got it aligned--pretty scary.

 

to tell you the truth I have that with my Eibach springs. after i got them put on I got a little wiggle from 0-15 and then it goes away. I had it aligned 4 times and it still doesnt go away. I guess its the way the springs are installed or something. Hopefully when i install my coilovers it will go away. I gave a G35xS I would like to know if more people have or had this problem too

 

I just installed my BC Coilovers and noticed the same thing but it only happened twice, but I haven't done an alignment. Keep us posted on what you find

 

I have a friend w/ an 06 X and he said ever since he put his bc's on he had the same problem. He's aligned to factory specs with kits in the front and back. If its anything like the Lexus problem I've read on it has to do with axle angles. I'm not sure if thats the issue here or not but it's just what I've seen on other AWD cars.

 

I am on Eibach... mine does not shimmy or wobble... i would take some pics on a level street, and or look at car there,, fenders are cut dif. and its quite an optical illusion on these cars,,, everyone wants the same fender gap, well, it wasn't like that stock,, so it ain't gonna be like that lowered,,,, i think it looks fine....

 

When my car was first lowered on H&R's, I waited for a week before I got my alignment to let the springs settle. During this time, my car felt wobbly and unstable which I was told was normal. Once I got my alignment done, it felt good as new, maybe even better. In regards to your question about the stance, maybe stance is a bit higher on yours because it's the X? Not exactly sure, but it does look to sit higher than mine (RWD).

 

I recently got eibach prokits on the car and am getting this same wobble from 0-15. I let the car settle for a week and got an alignment. Are you guys still having the issue or know what it is?
