No vibration at all. Well I don't think there is. I've gone 130 mph and it didn't vibrate at all. It might be in my mind, but it's like there some hesitation, kind of like an extremely light barely noticeable very feint vibration. I don't know if it's in my mind or not. I'll take my bro's "stock" G for a spin sometime and I'll know for sure.

But as far as obvious vibrations, there aren't any. An unbalanced wheel, snow stuck on the wheel or warped rotors all cause obvious vibration, this does not.

Perfectly understated. Love the cleanliness.

Well executed! I agree that about the only additional mod you might benefit from is painting the headlights. And maybe a midnight black grille since you're going for the murdered look.

Props on the ride!

Thanks guys! Spacers might be coming off the car! Since it's a lease, I don't want to cut and relocate the bumper bracket since it is rubbing. I would be a pain for the dealer to charge me some $ to fix that, I'd rather put the money towards a proper set of wheels that have proper offsets...

Where's the rub? Front or rear or both?

At the rear. Rubbing on the liner and bumper brackets. Only during highway dips and some higher speed city dips.

Oh and the "vibration" is gone, turns out one of my front wheels was barely out of balance. Must have not noticed it before but my paranoia made me pick it up after I installed the spacers.

So you think that without the spacers but having the 245/275 tires and Eibach pro kit the rubbing will go away? Thinking about Eibach but have 245/275 and am a little worried about possibility of rubbing. Thx in advance

You won't rub with that setup. I had the pro kit with the 245/275 and I wasn't rubbing at all without spacers.

I just bought the same tires for my G. Debating the same setup with Eibach Pro Kit and spacers, but many people warn about spacers as far as danger and vibration. Any comments to that? Also, just confirming you have no rubbing issues wight the 20mm spacers? I was quoted $700 for just the springs and install here in Vegas. Seems high don't you think when I can buy the springs for $200 on line. I just need to find a place to install them besides the overpriced custom shops here. Anyone in Vegas area that knows of a reasonable place to get them installed. Btw, your G looks great!

No vibrations at all and I know people that track their car with spacers and have no issues at all. 700 is pretty expensive, get them online for around 200 and the install is about a 2hr job so it'll depend on the shops hourly rate. With 20mm spacers and these tires, you'll need to trim/remove the bumper brackets to avoid rubbing completely.

And thanks! Let me know if you need anything else!
