Tanabe NF210 springs are a slight drop (1") that would look good without slamming it. Looks good. Weclome to the forum.

Definitely need a drop. I'd go with the Tein H-Techs for G35 or some coilovers.

Welcome
If you don't wanna change the stance, definitely go with the tanabe springs. They won't change the stance or the ride. I have a set for sale that was used for a month. PM me if you're interested.

The rims are RPM 505 19" Black with machined lip. Wanted 20" but the manufacturer stated they haven't made the 20" in black yet. The tires are yokahama ADVAN Sport the only tires we could find that would support that offset with the same tread. Pricey!

Good call on the center caps that would have looked bad on OB. Def needs a drop though.
