It may be the illusion of that parking lot (there's an odd downward angle of the pavement) but it definitely isn't intentional.

Is it due to the fact that I'm running 19x8.5 front and 19x9 rear with 245/40 up front & 275/35 in the rear?

My handling has been very odd. Overall driving in Orlando has been awful with the eibach springs. Would coil overs give me slightly better shock absorption or would it be a negligible upgrade?

I'm about ready to call it a day and go back to stock...as much as I love the look the roads around here are tearing me apart.

The 15mm looks perfect - I think that's what I'll be looking to go with.

I've done both, not on the G but on other cars. Depending on the c/o You will get a better ride than just a spring on standard shock most times. Your rake doesn't exist most times? It actually looks like the rear is higher than front. Are those off a different vehicle?

Thank you appreciate it yes the blue looks great since it matches my wheels but green would look good too and will pop

Relatively high end camera, I'm guessing. Long exposure and some manual light placements in the process.
