your need springs/coils, and spc camber kit, without the camber kit you'll wear out your tires within 10k miles. Thats what i did i'm lowered on h&r springs to take care of the 4x4 look in the front haha

Depends on your budget Carfanatic, If you can open that wallet I'd go coilovers if the Fortune 500 sets work for the X coupe, I know they do for the Sedan. Might contact Luke @ TH Motorsports, here's the coilover thread
https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...group-buy.html

For a smaller budget, springs for your OEM struts/shocks are available from Tanabe & Eibach, and again Swift makes them for the Sedan but don't have a part# for a coupe application, might contact Swift directly about them.

If you do a mild drop the very least that you'd need would be a rear camber set w/ rear toe bolt kit. I would recommend the complete F&R set though, it's about $500 but will save in tire cost over the years and getting your alignment in factory spec is what I'd shoot for.

BTW, your tire sizes seem smaller than what you posted before, should be 245/35/20 & 285/30/20 to match OEM diameter. Did you get different tires or what

Smile Yup your right typo

Hey Blewt, Yup sorry i was typing fast i got the tire sizes wrong LOL

Your right thanks for the correction.

Well you know im always trying to do the right thing so i can have peace of mind whats an extra $500 i`ll wait and save it up then buy 4x4 look is ok for now my car looks nice

ahahah man i hope your doing well i made a thread early with my cars intro i thanked you on there for your tire setup advise.

So by any chance would you know where i could buy the full camber kit including the tow bolt i think you mentioned i needed

Ebay has the front and rear camber from SPC but i have seen a post with that bolt you mentioned .


Thanks again man !!!!

Contact TH Motorsports for the camber kit, here's their camber set thread
https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...torsports.html

Either one of those spring sets I mentioned should give a fairly OEM like ride, always will be firmer but not overly so. Eibach is more common so you might search around for pics and see if that will work for you.

And I would install the coils (or springs) at the same time as the camber set, will save you install time overall.
