Could you post a pic?? I'm curious how it looks vs. the mild 275 stretch.

Weird about the alignment... but it should be on record. I just had mine aligned yesterday at our local Infiniti Dealership, and was with the technician the whole time. He needed me there because I was directing what camber I wanted in the rear. Can't tell for sure because of the angle of your pictures, but it looks like you have a little poke there in the rear, and could stand to have it pulled in a little.

Or not. Your car, not mine. And obviously I'm super sensitive to these considerations because very recently I've been living it too.

Your car looks great with those wheels and the drop. Very nice.
Thanks man, I'm going to stop by next the shop next time I get a chance and see what I can come up with

Broski28 - what mileage are you at when you put the swifts on and are you using your original shocks struts?

Yes my rear sits a tad higher than the fronts do. I noticed they settled a little bit but this is still the case.

They are just all around ideal. Perfect for DD, I have yet to scrape on anything. Great ride quality and plenty of drop to get rid of the wheel well gap. I was truly surprised with these

Not the greatest but you can see the rear still sits a little higher. I think the front settled a tad more

Broski your trim looks amazing in those pics, glad you went through with it, we have twin Gs! I really dig the setup, and the swifts were a huge improvement on the old look. Still rockin' the midnight grille I see, looks nice!

Thank you sir! I still can't decide what color to wrap the outer trim. I'm torn between black or grey like the window trim haha. So until something sparks my interest I guess the midnight will have to do

Haha it's definitely not settling to be rockin the midnight. Mine's currently trim-matched to my brushed titanium and I like it!

Do you have a couple more pics of yours?? Maybe seeing it again will make me pull the trigger. Right now I'm leaning more towards black
