How's the clearance for daily driving? I lowered my '05 TL and loved the handling improvement, but had a he'll of a time bottoming out. Even at 45's through humps and dips. Similar Eibach springs though and they were great. I am however considering coil overs for my new '10 G37S sedan. Any thoughts or recommendations?

looks great! can you though, tell us what your alignment specs were? i'm debating on coilovers or springs. springs are cheaper, and they give the ride height that i want - i won't be tracking the car or racing it heavily, so i'm shy away from coils. terry mentioned that he had to get caster arms to get everything into spec, but i'm happy with a 0 toe and a bit of camber.

Could you post another picture, now that the springs have had some time to set, similar to the ones that you took when the springs were first installed.

thanks.
i haven't done the alignment yet, i've been busy. i'll try to do it within this week.
the 1.5/1.2 is the drop rate from the Eibach website.

Is the 1.5" front / 1.2" rear the measurements you took when the springs were first installed or later after they had set in and dropped a bit more?

albeit negative camber really doesn't do anything to the tires as long as your toe's in. not sure about caster. by the way, ive hada 2010 g37x loaner for the past weekend, and BOY DOES that thing take off off the line. i'm REALLY enjoying the car! it's been raining like CRAZY here this past weekend. x sure does do the job! you have a NICE CAR!!!

for those looking for the Eibach PK....go to Import DPS
FYI - I got my '09 G37s sedan springs from them for $221.xx shipped to my door. Just gotta find somewhere to put them on for a reasonable price....
BTW OP....did you put on any spacers? Once mine is dropped, I think I'm going with 15mm or 20mm to flush the wheels.
Ride looks good man, your pics right after you put the springs on made me pull the trigger.
