I'm thinking about doing eibach pro kit on my g37s coupe. I've got wider wheels and tires on right now and I'm wondering if it is going to be necessary to add a camber kit to get back to almost oem spec camber. Can anyone answerr this who has used the eibach prokit and has wider wheels and tires? Thanks.

many people have the eibach and are running wide tires. I am dropped on eibach and running 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 with no rub (of course offsets play a role in this as well) as long as you take it to a performance shop that does good alignments, you will not need an camber kit. dont get alignment at pep boys or such

Kanji,
The drop looks great. I am getting Eibachs, too. In your opinion, what spacers do you think will fit best to get the stock wheels closer to the fender without rubbing?
Thanks.

When you installed you eibach pro kit did you do your alignment right after and the rear wheels were sitting flush on the ground? Or did you wait a week like what i've been hearing every1 does and then do the alignment?
I installed the eibach springs and did the alignment there after but the rear wheels are not straight on the ground. The bottom part of the wheel is a little out and top is a little inside the fender. Basically slanted like so "/" not that exaggerated of course but just for illustration purposed. Is the what they call negative camber? Anyone knows a performance shop thats does good alignment in Queens, NY?

ideally you should wait a week or two before getting an allignment to allow the springs to settle

i got my alignment done right away, the drop is sublte enough where any further settling wouldnt effect the alignment (others will disagree). My tire wear is fine from doing this and yes it has a slight negative camber, which you want anyway.
there are a bunch of places on new york that do this stuff. I'll PM where you can find them.

Re: negative camber. I am thinking of getting the eibach pro kit and a set of vossems, style still being considered, but maybe I am the only one that when I pull up behind another g37s and see the tilted wheels hate the look. I guess the question is will the eibachs cause this or is what I am seeing from more agressive lowering?
Re: Eibachs and 20 vossems. Is it also out of the question to run 255 & 285 20s as opposed to the norm 245 & 275 20s without rubbing.
Thx - Lawrence
