New mods on my car

Just thought I'd finally post some pics of my car. I just threw on some Progress springs (thx prjctmax!) and G35 coupe wheels. It's starting to look like a few others around here . I really like the sportier look and feel. Now it feels like a sport sedan.

Planning to do either 245/45's or 235/45's all around once the stock G35 tires wear out. Now I just need to buy an '07 wing!

Why you would go thinner then stock is beyond my comprehension.

Stick to 245/45/18 or better.

Best of luck, she loooks like a beaut.

Kinda reminds me of this one.

Thinner tire=less flex in the sidewall in hard turns=better control

Thanks man...it's nice because I didn't have to wait for the springs to settle. I love the rake. I hated the huge gap in the front and the squating azz end.

The G35 wheels still have the stock tires so 225's up front and 245's on the rear. The 225 are to small and stretched for the size of the car. 245's are nice but I kinda like the slightly thinner 235's. I may stick with 245's though. I have lots of time to decide.

Took me about 2hrs having never lowered a maxima before. I've done many vehicles in the past so not a big deal with this car. Spring compressor with air tools do help make things go quicker
