Thought I would contribute to the Vossen thread even though I have a G35 - the MN G Crew posts on here instead of Driver so I am almost on here more than Driver anyway. I ordered the CV3's last November and have been waiting all winter to install my KW Coils, SPC Camber and Akebono BBK to compliment the wheels.

This last week I had everything installed and could not be happier with the result! I am still trying to figure out the ideal ride height, and have adjusted my coils twice in the last few days - Here is the most recent set up (all pics taken on my iPhone).... Enjoy

Lol give me a call if that will help! (310) 694-7801 sounds like you really want what G37SAM has. If that's the case just grab 20/45 offsets w Eibachs and 255/285s. We say get coils to dile everything in better as far as ride height goes to adjust to your personal liking. Either way coils are always a big plus to have for many more reasons. What's your budget? If you don't wanna spend much and are looking for a practical DD and love what G37SAM has then its an easy choice! Go Eibach with 20/45 and 255/285s. You will have a great drop to go with The tires you want with lowest cost and a great offset. If you really want the rear +25 offset go with a Falken tire and S-Techs for best fitment.

I'm sorry I just saw you said you already purchased the +20/25 so if that is the case then keep a 275 out back and go with Falken FK452 or Toyo T1rs. Springs or coils it's on what fits your budget. I have 20/25 offsets with coils myself and a 275 Falken on rears but for fitment reasons I chose this tire. Keep in mind it has a stretch Look to them that's why I chose to go with these. Also to accommodate front I wouldn't go more then 245s just because you don't want a balloon like tire up front and a slight stretched on rear, with that being said grab Whichever suspension best suits your budget but run 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 FALKENS or TOYOS.

It's too late for me since my CV1s are arriving on Friday but would Swift drop with +20 front and +42 rears on 255/295 tires be better than +32 front +42 rear on same tires/drop?

Me personally have never ran a 255/30/20 or a 255/35/20 on a +20 only on a +32. However G37SAM just pulled it off with Eibach drop and looked great. I say your good with what you got! I honestly would be worried about rubbing if I had a 255/30 or especially a 255/35 with my kind of drop on a +20 offset, but for you I would say play it safe and run what you got.

I see, do you know what type of tires G37sam is running for the front? Is it the Falken/Toyos to get away with 255/35?

Just washed and waxed! Cell shots but I figured Id post em' anyhow after seeing this thread!

Nice to see another car running the 85s! I love mine, part of it was the lack of them out there and the combo with the chrome trim and black!

Nope no rubbing! If it rubbed trust me I would have posted for sale already lol. Could be cause it was raining that day and I had just mounted and had not fully cleaned tires and applied tire shine.

305s are awesome and I may go back to them! We shall see.
