I might be lower than grand hustle, i'm not positive on that though. I do know that the little "pyramid" thingy under the car that I use to jack the front with is about 2.75" from the ground. And the cradle that's right under the engine is lower than that. Sparks fly on some bumps.

I'm not trying to start a "who's lower" contest by the way. I prefer an aggressive stance over just trying to be as low as possible, which is heavily dependant on wheel choice.

agreed, i kninda like stance too, i didnt have the time to install my rims n spacers (crashed the week before)... no need for the comp... i know i35's n 5.5 bumpers are bigger than 5th's... we both have that same sparks problem (happened only twice though, i was really careful) as for the guy talking about wheels, i made up with tires where u had wheel so our overall wheel and tire inch was probebly the same... not necessarily what u called slammed, but in the maxima world yes it is...

Very true. lol. either way there's a few of us who are pushing the limits of stance and height on these cars. Something that is lacking very much in this community.

I have a 4th gen and after raising and lowering numerous times, I found the most practical fender height to be about 26". This may seem high to some but It works for me.
