I just measured my wheel gap and it looks like I have about a 2" gap front and back. So in theory I should end up with a .6" wheel gap after installing 1.4" drop springs. But from the pictures you guys posted it looks like you have about an inch of wheel gap.
So my next question is do the Eibachs really drop the car 1.4"?
I'm OK with them not dropping it as much as advertised because I don't want it slammed. Any feedback would be greatly apreciated.
OK guys. Finally got the springs and Rotors on. Also got an Alignment. Attached a picture of the Alignment details so you can see the before and after once the springs are on. Once again thanks for all the help and pictures.
any of you that got the eibachi drop and running 20s on ur car, anyone had 3 people sit on the back ? Does it rub? .. I'm between putting 19s or 20s. With 19s I know il have more tire meat, and with 20s I wont, which leave them vulnerable to being bent or cracked if hitting a bad pothole. Any thoughts and experiences much appreciated. Thank you. .
Changed Factory 19’s to VFS1’s 10.16.18 Dropped with RSR down springs 10.28.18

wow she looks nice man. Deff see the difference. I love how the 20s look but I dont wanna deal with the rubing. I mean I can always roll the fenders , but idk how much that will help . These maximas need to be dropped, they sit too high fir my liking.

Thanks!
If mine was a daily I would have stayed on stock 19’s and probably went coilovers for adjustability with a 35 instead of 45 tire
im on 15mm and 20mm spacers respectively now
car is in for some paint and body mods right now I’ll repost some updates pics when she’s finished

makes sense. No mine is a daily so il got with 19s but il get staggered, I like the look of the lip on this beefy 7th gen ..and the eibachi drop should be more than enough.
vossen vfs1 9.5 x 20 all around
15mm hubcentric spacers in front and 20mm in rear
have since went 20mm in front and 25mm in rear
(rolled my fenders after the spacer upgrade)
Not 100 on the tire offset
tires are Lexani 245/35/20 series not sure off hand
got it then as a set for $800
had them PC matte black end of 2018
upgraded center caps to black billet and new black lugs
guy it had them on a 3.8 genesis with 1” spacers and they rubbed , so got them for a good deal
tires had 5 miles on them

Here is an updated pic on the RSR drop springs on 20’s I’ve got almost 2 fingers of clearance on all 4
I love the look a lot . Its flush to the core . My only concern. If u got 3 peeps sit in the back. Will they run ?
