Best Way To Lower G SLIGHTLY

Hey! If this isn't the right section feel free to move the post, but I felt the answer might be specific to the sedan. I was wondering what the best way to go about lowering my AWD G25X just a little bit was. I live in Maine so with snow and ****ty roads I can't ride too close to the ground or I'll be scraping all day long. I have been looking at getting some 19in Velgens soon and when I do that I would also want to lower the car a couple inches closer to the ground as well as reduce wheel gap a little. What would the best way to do this be? Any advice? Thanks in advance!

I've got Swift springs on my G37 xS sedan and have been very satisfied with them and the limited drop they offer. That being said, it's been a rough winter on the roads here in NJ where I live and potholes are terrible. Spring is here and many of our roads are being repaved. Good luck whatever you decide to go with

Roxx, a 2" drop may sound like a mild drop but in reality it would be pretty slammed. Mild drops such as Swift & Eibach drop about 1.25 to 1.5" max and still should include camber kits to maximize tire life and get your car aligned to factory specs. This thread recently posted is what would be considered a mild drop and camber kits may not be needed~

You might want to consider the Tanabe NF210s: Tanabe USA R&D Blog | Infiniti G37 Sedan

Note that I recall reading somewhere that they based the spring rate of this product on the Sport model suspension, so it may be a little firm for your liking.

These fall into that 1ish inch drop category, so I think this is mild enough not to require a camber kit: https://www.myg37.com/forums/g37-sed...f-springs.html

Lou at Amplified has some first hand experience, so you may want to confirm with them: https://www.myg37.com/forums/support...g35-sedan.html
