Lowered G37S Coupe alignment question, help asap!
I am considering a purchase of an 08 G37S coupe with 32k miles. The car has been lowered with lowering springs (not sure yet, which ones) about 1" - 1.5" and it has 20" Axxis wheels.
My question is, without any camber or toe adjustment arms, how spot on or off should I expect the alignment to be with a G lowered in this way?
I am considering taking the car to Stillen after the purchase on Saturday 4/9, to have the alignment checked out and possibly do some suspension work to get it dialed in better to save the expensive 20" tires and to make it handle better. I know that the G is already at a handling disadvantage from the car I am coming from, 07' Cayman S with Billstien PSS9's and H&R sways. I want to get the handling as good as I can to lessen the pain of selling my Porsche! lol Any suspension advice would be greatly appreciated since I don't have a lot of time to read through a lot of posts on the forum to get my answer/opinions.

Probably Eibachs springs, don't worry about the camber, with Eibachs it's barely touched. And if he got an alignment when je lowered the car you should be fine. But if you want the handling to be better then just get a set of coilovers, front and rear sways, and a strut bar.

I would probably consider doing coil overs later on, but would consider the sways now. My main concern now is tire wear and handling is secondary in the short run. Which brand sways would people recommend? Is there conventional wisdom on which ones are best quality and most adjust-ability?
I know for Porsche Caymans H&R and TPC seem to be the best quality and best performing.
