I have a 2009 G37x... looking to get 19's or 20's after winter. After looking around at a lot of pictures on here, it seems that everyone has their's dropped! I've never lowered a car before. I would love to get away without lowering it- maybe just going with the 19s (i think the s looks really nice stock - unfortunately I don't have the s or the stock s 19s - furthermore, i think the suspension heights are different?).

Anyone pay a shop or dealer to install the lowering springs or coilovers? If so, how much did that run ya? I don't have access to a garage, nice jack/tools and am definitely not skilled enough to try it myself.

Also - to kill 2 birds with one stone here - if you have 19s or 20s on your car with no drop - post pics!

 

Cost of a jack, jack stand and basic tools will be cheaper than an install. They are simple to do. If you can get the time and place to do it yourself I would suggest that, but if you must pay, without an alignment I would say no more than $200. I did mine in about 2 hours, with basic hand tools and a jack, no lift.

 

It is EXTREMELY easy to do, I would do it yourself so when you are done you have the know-how. . . Honestly it shouldn't take you more then 2 hours if you have never done it before and dont have a lift and/or air tools. . .

 

any suggestion on types of brand?? looking for some livable not harsh types of Coilovers

 

I would do it yourself so when you are done you have the know-how.

 

coilovers are easy to do, thats the nice part about them compaired to lowering springs

 

so then the questions becomes - what's the best coilover package for the 09 g37x? They are pretty pricey!

 

the x coupes don't have many options....
it's either you go Eibach lowering springs,
or 2 different coilovers, which are the D2 Racing, and BC coil
No experience with the coils, so I can't comment on them,
but I do like my eibachs, it provides a very good looking drop and ride isn't too bad.

Honestly, if they had quality coils for the X Coupe, I would jump on it in a heart beat.
