Cool PLEASE HELP!! With my wheels and stance!!

Ok, Im a noob at this but Ive been researching. Please help with you experience and opinions!!


Car: Liquid Platinum g37s Coupe with AIT TS Style Front Bumper and areo sides

Use: Its a daily driver with pretty good roads in sacramento.

Wheels: Forgestar F14's 20" in Piano Black
Deep Concave 20×9.5 20×10.5
OR
Semi Concave 20×9.0 20×10
OR
Semi Concave 20x9.0 Deep Concave 20x10.5

Tires: Yokohama S Drives 245/35/20 & 275/30/20.

Offsets: Im thinking 20/25

Drop: Im thinking Eiback Prokit, because its a daily driver and dont want to mess up the front bumper... Or do you think i can go lower on Coils?? Im trying to save money also


Overall Look: I am looking for a stance that looks aggressive, but doesnt draw too much attention or looks out of place (or looks like a mexicans car) Sorry, that the only way i can describe it. How do you like the color scheme (liquid platinum and gloss black?? I just think matte black will look dull...

no wonder, all those roads are fairly new last 10+ years.. HWY 50 sucks and 99 is even worse.

I drove to South SF over the weekend and am glad i am not lowered....

Ideas look good, You sure about the 20's? I know everone runs them( Ex me) Run 19's Boston roads SUX.. One thing I can say is you will need a camber kit-Front and rear, if you drop it.I'm on Eibachs and my kit just came today.

just as a note, those are +20 & +25 I was rocking, but I also had spacers. 5mm rear and 15mm front. Just an FYI.............so mine was a little tad more aggressive in stance.

I don't think Forgestars rocks offsets like that.

and mine is a "Mexican" Car.........whatever that means

haha i knew i should have edited that... i dont know how else to describe it.... just didnt want the wheels are sticking out waaayy to fat and look funny... i just want aggressive. What were you lowered on raul??

Semi concave
20×8.5 offsets from +26 to +50
20×9.0 offsets from +18 to +56
20×10 offsets from +31 to +69
20×11 offsets from +48 to +81

Deep Concave
20×9.5 offsets from +7 to +43
20×10.5 offsets from +20 to +55

What do you guys think semi concave? or deep concave?

Will eibach been enough drop? do i need camber kit?

camber kit isnt a need its basically to avoid uneven tire wear. I would get a rear camber kit because it is inexpensive.

I was on Megan Coilovers back then, but now have Tein SS Coilovers.

Day and night difference, not to knock Megans, they are good for the price and have dampening adjustments, but I did encounter the famous rear passenger rattle. I just tightened the bolt and it was good as new.

Mine do.. I had my rims and tires installed 10 days ago and my camber was off by 2% front and rear. The stock system was adjusted to the max.. There has been some on going talks on here about this. Some say get them and some say you dont need them,. Just saying from my experience I need them.
