Suspension suggestions G37x sedan

Guys just put some Vossen CV3's on the car (20x9 245/30 front, 20x10.5 285/30 rear) and my bc coilovers have arrived. Is there anything else i should look into? Is there front and rear camber parts that fit the X?? Should i also put some Hotchkins sways on?

Depending on how low you go you will need camber kits but the Hotchkis are probably the best-bang-for-the-buck suspension/handling mod.

Im not sure how low i can go. The rear tires look wider htan the fender already. What camber kits work with the AWD?

I think the following should work:

SPC Front and Rear Combo INFINITI G37 2008 - 2011 72260 + 72130

CV-3s are nice but 285 is pretty wide for the sedan. I am planning to go with 275 on a 19x10 within a couple weeks.

I bought these wheels. They are going on in a couple weeks when the tires arrive.
I bought 275/30/20 for the rear but the prior owner had 285's on them.
It really depends on the wheel design and offset.
Lowering and creating a bit of negative camber (with 0 toe) will tuck them for you as well.

Did this setup really work for you? I have the 2011 g37x sedan,
and vossen tells me that the 20x10.5 won't fit.

ichiba has a setup for us, the only problem i have had is that their customer service kinda sucks because they set me the wrong part twice, its the exact same thing as spc's camber kits

10.5s fit perfectly fine! Go staggered 9.0 and 10.5 w 245/35 and 275 or 285s with +45 rear. Contact me with any questions, you will be within the 3% rolling diameter so no worries absolutely no worries affecting the AWD system on the X.

I just did a test fit today with the vossen cv3 20x10.5 in the rear. It doesn't fit, it sticks out an inch. So, I guess I'm just gonna wait till the 20x10 arrives. Hopefully, at least it will be flush with the fender.

What offset? sounds like you placed the +25 offset, you need the +45 rear 10.5s!

Vossen Wheels come with two Offsets!

32/45 - Recommended for Sedans

20/25 - Aggressive on coupes and not recommended for sedans for those exact reasons the +25 stick out way to much.

Check behind the wheel to see what the offset is. All sedans with +32/45 DO NOT stick out.

Vossen cv3

Thanks guys. I'm gonna buy the BC Racing coilovers first, install them, then test fit the 45 offset to make sure it doesn't touch with the coilovers put on.

Any ideas for a camber kit for a 2010 g37x sedan?
