Boywdr, Swift makes different springs for the coupe, sedan and the X. You may want to contact them directly to find out if they make springs for your specific G. I saw their spec sheet and for the G35, it only shows the G35 sedan (I'm assuming the RWD). I know this spec sheet hasn't been updated as they now make them for the G37 RWD and its not on the sheet.

Their email address is sales@swiftsprings.com and their number is (909) 923-9788. If they do make them for your G, ask them who sells them in your area.

Good luck.

Thanks Adrian,
Here's some updated pics with the new wheels. The springs feel the same as the day that they were installed.

Hey pebkac, fronts are 20x9 32 255/35 and backs are 20x10 39 275/30. The top and bottom pics are with Hancook V12's tires and 42 offset and middle pic are my current tires Potenza RE760's (back tires) and 39 offset. I changed to the Potenza's because of a vibration issue but it turned out being the wheels. They were drilled incorrectly but has been fixed (got new wheels). I liked the way the Hancooks looked better as they are flat and the Potenza's are more rounded making it look like there's more gap than there really is. I'll get Hancooks again once I burn through the Potenza's.

Thanks for the response!

I've been think 255/35 and 275/30 would go best with my 20x9 +32 and 20x10.5 +45 but it's been suggested to to 285/30 in the rear instead.

Thoughts?

Brad, I saw a stock Black G next to mine today when I was at lunch. I really appreciate the work put into my G now. You get a real perspective when you see them side by side.

If I were going with 10.5 45, I'd go with the 285's. All forum talk indicates there will be no rubbing. Hope that helps.

Nice! Im on the fence on either planning for a 19" or 20"...the thought of 20" to me is daunting, but your car makes me think otherwise!

I was also on the fence with deciding between 19's and 20's. I decided to go with 20's and haven't looked back since. The Swift springs really help with maintaining a smooth ride. Not identicle to stock but surprisingly comfortable.

Bota - I heard that Swift springs don't need to settle, is that true from your experience?

Also, did you ever get an alignment kit?

I thought all springs settle.... because they're springs.

Choman, why are you looking at springs and not coil-overs? Bota, what was your reasoning on that?

Oh, and this here is a great photo. It's got depth and perspective, and really shows off those STANCE SC-6IX rims in a perfect way.

Nicely done, Bota.
