Can a 08 G35xs be lowered? Help!

Stillen and a few others have told me that The G35x models can't be lowered because of a different kind of suspension or something for the AWD models. Is this true? I just got some Giovanna 19's but I need to get this baby lowered if possible I just don't know if I can.

Tire rack and Stillen both told me that the Eibach pro kit will only fit on the RWD model and not the AWD model. If you go to tire rack it doesn't have anything that will fit on the AWD G. Are they wrong? Maybe they just haven't tested the G35x yet so they can't say for sure. I just don't wanna buy some springs and mess up my beautiful G or have them not fit.

Talked to Eibach, H&R and Intrax today. All three told me their springs won't fit properly on the G35X. WTF.

At least one AWD has been lowered using Eibach with pictures to back it up. Check the database.

Also, Eibach will not officially say their springs fit unless they put it on themselves. That said ... how come none of you local AWD owners haven't contacted them for a test fit?

https://g35driver.com/forums/showpos...9&postcount=22 this is the post of the member with a G35x dropped on H&R

IMO, drop looks even all around and really good
