Thanks. From my understanding, if i run aggressive offset, I cant go with wide tires and cant be too low rite? Even with coil, it wont help much?

Well what r u planning on running in the back tires? I wouldn't run +20 and 25 with eibach, they will poke cuz not enough camber.

I am planning to run 275/30/20 at the back. I understand the Eibach will make the rear wheel poke out, but with s tech is like prefect match... really sufferring here...

245/35/20 upfront and 275/30/20 for the rear is the way to go. Falkens offer a bit more stretch so it'll work best with you 25 rear offset. If you are worried about road condition then stick with Eibach for a more conservative drop. If however you have the cash to spare, get coils and you can really fine tune your drop to your liking. Happy modding

If you go +25 your going to need to shave your bumper bracket if you go with s techs regardless.

G37SAM has +20 yes but also is running Eibachs. If you want that look then run that! just don't attempt it with S-Techs. You will be fine if you run Eibachs and a +20 but the rears would look so much nicer if you go S-Techs with +25 rears. Hard decision but if it comes down to road conditions and keeping it conservative for a DD then go Eibachs and 20/45 offsets and run 255/35/20 and 285/30/20 You can even space out the rears a tad using a 5mm spacer or just leave as is. Would look great! I actually loved how G37SAM's car looked with his current set-up and got me thinking about 20/45 offsets but with 255/305s. Hope this helps but yeah like others mentioned, 20/25 with Eibachs just go Falkens or Toyos 245 and 275s. Both tires have a nice stretch to them that may look great with Eibachs. I remember a few members ran the Eibachs with 20/25 but with 235/265 tires. Let me try to find the pics i will be right back lol.

Thanks!

I was sold on CV1's and CV2's, then I came across the one gallery on your site with the g37 w 85's and for whatever reason I just liked them better.. They look awesome in person!

If I go coil, running with 255/285 should be okay then? As long as I have the height adjust well?
