How is your ride quality? Drop looks great by the way, thinking of getting the X myself, and was wondering if a drop like this would make every pothole a nightmare.

I have the g37x sedan and have the g35x eibach springs. They're feel almost like stock...little rougher over bad pavement, but close to stock.

I'm very happy with the drop.. The ride is a bit rougher, I'd say a 15% drop in ride quality.. Definitely worth it.. I'm mostly drive in the burbs/highway..

I dont think I would get a drop if I lived the city (Chicago)..

Eibach + Tokico HP = Best DD set up IMO.

or

H&R + Tokico HP = lil more aggressive DD set up.

If these 2 don't work for ya, go with coilovers and call it a day!

I'm shocked no one mentioned the tanabe nf210. It's only 1 inch, and I honestly can't tell a difference in ride quality from stock.
