How do I give my 04 g35 coupe a stance???

[Goon35coupe]

Can I get a stance with my stock springs?
Can I keep my stock rims with a stance?
Does the stance really eat ya tires?
Do I have to lower the car and purchase a camber kit?

What are some options I have to achieve the stance and at a reasonable price.... Please help my G get that sexy lean!!!

I assume you want to lower you car...best bet to to use aftermarket springs. Really not that expensive and will save you $$ in the long run on tires. If you cut your OEM springs, you will affect your suspension layout and it will change the wear characteristics of your tires (eat tires faster). You do not need a camber kit unless you want to change your camber angle...not needed if you're after looks and mild performance upgrade.

Aftermarket suspension will work with OEM rims.

Now, if you want the drift car "look" get a kit for that...but that will really eat tires.

Good luck.

Well, you can old-school it and cut your coils or you can do it right and get proper suspension. Realize the G's have little camber/toe and no caster adjustments from the factory so any change in the geometry over an inch or so should include adjustable upper control arms, and rear control arms and toe bolts. Else you have the potential of eating tires due to limited toe adjustability. I learned the hard way.

Welcome aboard!

You have an expensive, well-engineered car. The "stance" fad is not for those with shallow pockets, or amateurs.

At a bare minimum, you're looking at coilovers, wheels, tires, and a proper alignment. My G coupe had 1" of gap, and still performed well on a track and for daily driving. Any lower than that, and you've basically created a piece of furniture.



....unless you want to be one of those pinheads who thinks excessive camber, stretched tires, and "tucking rim" is cool. In that case, start with a Civic and practice.
