Question Lowering Stock IPL

So I'm good with most things on cars except suspension and brakes
I'm trying to lower my 2012 IPL on stock 19" rims but not sure what I need with these tire sizes:
Tire Size (front): 225/45 R19 92W
Tire Size (rear): 245/40 R19 94W

What kind of coilcovers should i be looking at?

Would I need spacers if I'm lowering it?

and what about camber kits?

Would appreciate your guys input! list suggestions on other brands suggestions on what I would need !

People are going to blast you for not searching on such a common question... There are many questions you need ask yourself. How low do you want it? How are the roads where you live? How often are you going to drive it? Are you going to take it to the track? What is your budget?

There are a couple ways to lower your car. Coilovers or springs. Coilovers will cost anywhere from 500-2000 (for the most part) and springs (100-350). Coilovers have adjustable Lowering ability and most have damping/rebound adjustability. Springs are a set height varying from 1" to 2.5" and also have set compressions. With that the lower you go, the more likely you need a camber kit to put you back into factor specs. Eibach swift and ark springs are all springs that you can probably get away without camber kit cuz they are a mild drop about an 1" or so. Tien s-tech and H&R springs with an aggressive drop of 2"+. With eibach ect. many use 20mm spacers for a clean look. Larger spacers will give you a more "aggressive" look and your tires will stick out from the wheel well. The lower you go the larger spacers you need.

Koni is a very reputable shock company which came out with a set for g37s. For a little over 1k you can go with a swift spring/Koni combo which it supposed to be amazing.

Others please correct me on anything, but this is what I've learned from the forum
