2010 XS Blue Slate - Dropped on H&R Springs

I got my 2010 G37 XS, in Blueslate with Graphite Interior about 3 weeks ago. Premium, sport and navigation package.

Traded MY 08 G 37S PG coupe

Added H&R Springs a few days ago.

I traded same car for my new G37XS sedan...and thinking about a drop

how far did the springs lower the car...almost looks too far?

was this made for this car or did you use a generic set?

how is the ride compared to stock?

Specs say 1.5 Front 1.4 Rear but its definitely lower than that. Springs are for the Coupe, if you get H&R sedan springs it offers a slightly milder drop. I don't rub with 4 people in the car. I plan on doing a rims soon probably will have to go 19" since I'm kinda low. Ride quality is great assuming you avoid the harsh bumps. Stiffer than stock tighter, slight bounce but nothing major.

Car still has a smooth ride, I was actually surprised. I'll see if I need a camber kit once I get alignment. Thats if they make 1 for the Xs

Thanks for sharing this mod. I've been thinking about whether and how much to drop my xs and this gives me some good guidance. Your drop is a little much for my tastes, especially at the rear. Good to hear you're not having scrapes though.

No problem, it was hard for me to find X sedans dropped, when I was considering doing the mod. So i figured I would share. Wheel set-up will be coming soon I will share as well. Will add more Pics after a Wash this weekend.

It's a neighborhood I know people hardly move there cars, I park near cars that have the club on the steering wheel lol, I know they probably parked for a while. But your right I try my best to avoid tight spaces.

Gelo3086,
Looks good. I didn't know you could fit the coupe springs. Did you get camber kits? Or were you able to get the alignment within factory specifications? Thanks.

the back looks a bit low. You definitely need the camber kit or you're gonna eat through those tires

Rear is pretty low, but honestly in person it looks great, drop looks even.
