<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Please help,
I have 2008 G37 base and i want to put new wheels on it without changing the suspension. What looks better, 19s or 20s? Could someone please post pics on stock ride height so i dont look like a monster truck driving down the road? Im curious which will look cleaner.Any feedback would be appriciated even if it is being flamed. I know getting coilovers is the first thing i should think but i really want to stick with stock suspension.

Thanks so much everyone,

Both 19's and 20's look great on a G37 but if you get either of those sizes, you should definitely invest in springs(the Eibach pro-Kit is the most popular here). You can get away with fender gap for 19" wheels but for 20's then definitely go with a drop and if you're buying aftermarket wheels+tires, adding on $250 for a set of springs is almost a necessity.

 

Don't get 20s without a drop or it will look bad. You might have trouble finding pics bc no one does it. If you don't want to lower it, I might suggest the sport 19s, you could probably find a set for sale here on the classifieds.

If you lower on eibachs, your ride quality will suffer, and it may also have negative effects on your stock shocks in the future. A good set of coilovers (like KW v3) will maintain a ride quality similar to stock at mild settings.

 

Don't you see how stock 19 inch on S looks?

 

hmmm weird how this is a word for word reproduction of a thread in a different section...

Actually Eibach is the closest to OEM you can get. My eibachs feel the exact same as when I picked up the car. Everyone I know says that KW V3 is much stiffer (even on its softest setting). I am getting them put on this weekend and currently have Eibachs so I'll be able to provide first hand experience soon, but that's what I've heard about the V3.

How very observant of you hi-speed......i thought only the army used that terminology? Yes it is exactly the same, i didnt go to stanford for nothing haha wasnt sure which section would reply faster..

thanks

 

[QUOTE=StanfordG37;2948404]haha no prob man, either one will get plenty of views and responses...

since when is the army a high speed org? our ground pounders need a manual to find the chow hall lol

 

i just put 20's on my x coupe doesnt look that bad but I know I need a drop. Only had the car for 2 weeks

 

20s and eibachs and you wont be disappointed

 

I'll sell you my Eibach ProKit if you want it...$115+shipping and it's yours

 

Stock springs on this car = monster truck no matter what size wheels you run. At the least the Eibachs are a must for this car....

 

I have read that the stock non-sport model sits a few tenths lower then the stock sport model. If you like the look of the stock setup sport model with 19", the non-sport will actually look a shade better with 19" wheels.

 

Do you have a PIC you can show us? I am kinda in the same world with the rims.

 

I think problem is only front, rear stock is OK on mine X/19 inch rims. But that is same look even on IPL G stock.

 

Jesus guys, the G is not that high stock.
