20's without lowering ???

Hey, does anyone have 20's on their G37 coupe without lowering with springs or coilovers? I'm thinking about not dropping the car, so i want to see how they look. Thanks everyone!

no, don't do it pls. I'd rather have stock wheels and suspension if you're going 20's without a drop.

I agree with everyone else. 20s without lowering wont look good. I remember when I bought my wheels I didn't put them on till I got my springs.

Got 20s on my 08, but havent lowered it yet. Already people say it looks good lowered and those 20 inch rims. I tell them, I havent dropped them yet and they are like 0_0 damn.

I have 20" Stance Wheels on my G37x and it really doesn't look that bad at all. Of course dropping it will give it a more aggressive look but its not an absolute must. Most people are surprised that they are 20s because they fit so well. I will post a pic of mine but I'm traveling right now so I should have that up over the weekend.

IMO lowering is a must, especially if you have wheels with a lip. But I have seen some G37's with stock height that look real good with 20's on them. Truthfully I think it depends on the wheels. You can get away with it if your wheels don't have a lip and they are not cheesy wheels.

I just tossed 20s on my '08 g37s a few minutes ago without lowering.. yuck. Looks like a donk. Luckily its just going to sit outside my place till tomorrow morning when I take it to a buddy's where we will be installing coilovers/sways and getting an alignment. They would have stayed off but I've got no room to transport 20s 100kms away. It'll be shameful drive to his place. I thank whoever invented tint so no one can see me.
