Got it dropped at Forged Performance in Marietta and aligned at Butler tire. Enjoy the moving pictures!

First vid is a pic shakey, no tripod. Next time

That looks damn good. Have you noticed any clearance issues yet?

BTW, how's Lawrenceville doing? I lived off Old Norcross for a bit and then quite a while in Suwanee off L'ville-Suwanee Rd. That place has grown like a weed since I moved away in '95 as L'ville-Suwanee rd was 2 lane and when I moved there in '85 I think there was only two subdivisions on the whole road.

Thanks audtatious. I have had one incident with the liner getting displaced a bit on the ride side only and over some dips I'm sure there may be a little rubbing if going over it too fast. The settling is in it's first week. Eventually I may have to get the liner trimmed, adjusted. The plan is 15mm spacers all around and lower profile 19s. Other than that I'm loving it.

Re Lawrenceville, it's good. Lots of development since '95 in the Suwanee side and to the side near 120/Duluth highway.

The problem I had with my last set of Eibach's was the settling of the butt-end. What started as a relatively even drop ended up with the rear being lower. I have H-tech's to install on my coupe as soon as I get the time.

Are you rubbing the inner liner on the inside or outside fender area? If outside then spacers will make things worse and require more trimming. I do wish I had your rear rims tho as the vert rims would fit the coupe much better. I'm probably going with aftermarket rims instead of paying 300 for F/R spacers.

I was last through the L'ville area in '03 and was glad I didn't live there anymore. In '87 I could drive from the house all the way to work on Ashford-Dunwoody and be there in 1/2 an hour. When I left in '95 it took 1-1.5 hours. Probably worse now. Here (Louisville, KY area), rush hour is pretty laughable....at least the way I go.

Interesting. I'll be on the look out for that. The rubbing is on the side. There is probably a 1/2 inch distance with the liner and the stock tire after a week of settling. The vert rims and coupe rims are the same from 08 G37 sport coupe and up. It's very likely I might hit the underside of the fender once the spacers are added. The things is I already have the spacers but I know it will not work right now with the stock tires. I was thinking of the tanabe nf210, but went with the eibach for the lower front drop. Fingers are crossed for some spring manufacturer officially supporting a mild drop (0.5 inch) on the vert or offering supported coilovers.

Yeah, traffic in Atlanta in general is a mess at rush hr. Luckily I work not too far away and never have to hit I85.

The '08+ Coupe rear 19" Sport rims are +45mm offset while the '09+ vert Sport rears are +30mm. The 'vert actually has a 1.1" wider track than the coupe, I'm assuming for storing the top in the trunk. +30mm would be perfect for the coupe

Here's a reference which shows differences: http://infinitig37.com/tech.html
^^^ all from the owners manuals

Ahhh ok. I see I did not consider offsets. It's very likely I'll need to revise the spacer size. I'll have a good while to think about it. Thanks for the info.

Absolutely, that's why we are here; to help fellow enthusiasts

Cereal -
With a 25mm spacer on the rear, the distance from the front face of the rim to the fender edge will be identical to the front spacing.
Good luck!

Thanks Bschurr, good reference point for the stock rear height from your pics. If I go for the raked look (back to stock rear springs), I may look into that. I would like a flushed vs tucked look without a rim upgrade to 20s.
