i saw pictures of the G37xS Coupe dropped on eibach pro kit.
1.9" front, 1.6" back, and it seemed it dropped too much for my taste.
It almost looked tucked in to the wheel well.

I just recently lowered my 11 X on the Eibach Pro Kit for the AWD not the S so there's less of a gap between the fender and the tire. I still want to install a camber kit so that I eliminate any negative camber. As far as downsides, just like any lowering spring, it'll decrease the life of the stock struts. Also the ride will be stiffer and you'll feel more of the bumps too.

Here's a couple pictures. Sorry, they're crappy quality cuz it's taken from my phone.

S springs and X springs are NOT the same. The X suspension is way to soft for a sports coupe/sedan.

do you have a coupe or a sedan?

heres your answer for what fits your vehicle:
Eibach Springs : EPS Application Look-up | suspensions | springs | dampers | stabilizers | shocks | sway bars | anti-roll bars | wheel spacer | coil over | engine valves


Quick Reply: g37x is too high...springs!
