I had planned to go back and forth; winter 18"x8 wheels M&S original tires, and summer performance with 19"x8.5 wheels. How it sounds like I'm really screwed, if I go with the eibach. Do you agree or will the 18's work with the springs as well ? Do you know if I'll need an alignment kit with the eibach's ?

You will be fine with 18inch and springs. My car is using stock wheels and eibach and it works perfectly. I even put on 20mm spacers all around for more flush look. You do need an alignment since your toe can be very off which wears your tires fast. Other than that it is great. 20mm spacers are recommended to avoid the sunken battleship look.

'havin a tough time deciding on tires for the 19's. Read the C&D artical. Want a performance feal but not too loud or stiff. The PS2's sound good but expensivr. What brand do you recommend?

quick question, if you go with the sport oem setup for wheels and tires (19's + whatever the wheel profiles are) on the g37x and drop it with eibachs how much wheel gap are we looking at front and back?

According to the Eibach spec for P/N 6394.140, designed for the 37X, it drops the front 1.9" and rear 1.6".

So I have the wheels and tires that I wanted on my G37X. I'm ready to go with Pro Kit drop so I call Eibach to make sure that I can get the F/R camber back to EO spec and they tell me I need a kit in front 5.72130K and rear 5.72280K lists for $830. Anyone else need these?
