The wheels are EXE konvex and the weigh around 30lbs each if i were you i would go with a 35 series tire with 275's in the rear and 245's up front and get a set of 350z h-techs that to me is the closest to stock ride your going to get. My friend has an 04 coupe running this setup and it rides very nice.

I have a 30 series tire on my set up but if you want it alittle quieter go with a higher sidewall.

You may have to run a 30 series tire on the 20x10's I belive thats the size my friend runs he has 35 series in the front and 30's in the rear.

STIDriver quick question. I read the post from you and your friend without even thinking that I talk to you on the forum. Listen I am a everyday driver like your friend. I either want to get the Tein 350z H-tec springs like his or the Eibach Springs like yours. I def like your drop better being that everyone I hear that has the h-tec have to do the spring mount mod to get it within the drop I want. So considering that I don't want coil overs, camber kits, uneven tire wear, or anything else..... just a simple spring and alightments....which ones should i get?

I lost alittle accelleration going to 20's but i did add a 5/16 motordyne plenum spacer, stillen z tube,and topspeed pro 1 exhaust and picked up my lost acceleration real quick i absolutly love my G coupe now. heres a pic for you.
Love the wheels, white coupes are pure sex.

If you want to increase your car's performance this is a big mistake. One of, if not the, best bang for the buck mods you can get. Easy to install yourself too.

The h-techs drop in the front are perfect but the rear only drops a half inch if you want more you have to do the spring mount mod. As far as the pro kit it dropped my car a little over an inch all the way around and i love it all i did was put in rear spc toe bolts and alignment and they got me pretty close to spec my tire wear is un noticable so far with 2k of driving on them.

Im riding with 20's on my G. I just put them on not too long ago. It doesn't ride that bad at all vs 18's. I lowered my ride with tein H tech spring. Perfect drop for 20's and no wheel rub. Im riding with 245/35 in front and 285/30 in the rear and they look awesome. 275 will be fine too. I wouldn't be worried about the spedo change. It shouldn't be major if at all.
