Well it will be whatever the 1.25" drop gives it. I’m getting these springs because:

1. They are made specifically for the AWD versions of the car
2. They are like the H&R’s on the Maxima. Look of a dropped car with ride quality of a stock car

I’m going to be putting on the side skirts and rear lip of the Aero Kit that came from the dealer and then swapping the front bumper to this:

![http://allworldcars.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/2008-infiniti-m45-sport-3.jpg](http://allworldcars.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/2008-infiniti-m45-sport-3.jpg)

This is my stock front bumper:

OR

I could get the back half of the Impul kit for a real unique look:

Me too…but we’ll see. I don’t normally like body kits, just lips. I might just stick with the simple aero kit.

Here’s some more though:

Reading about Ings, I guess the Fuga (Japanese version) has different dimensions so you have to get body work done to fit the Ings on a US model.

who made you an authority on how to lower a car, last i check’d youve got a cupkit or something. tuck 15s, then we’ll talk.

ILYA : AMD used to have the MRR’s they arent bad wheels he had a couple finish blemishes occur, but that might have been from a wheel cleaner or something, or a stone chip that got some water under it. but they look decent on your car in the pictures.

These will be very pampered wheels. I should be okay. I like the look myself, we’ll see how it all fits together. That’s my plan for Spring 11 (above).

Do the staggered setup. More dish in the back than front will look like a proper rwd wheel set.

I think they make wheels like that, but it might end up being a rather costly custom setup to make em with like 10 and 45 offset to make that lip a reality but keeping the other dimensions the same so his awd computer doesnt spazz out

it doesnt matter how wide the wheels are. its about overall outside diameter. find a tire combination that makes it the same. and youre fine.

so if your fronts are say 8 wide and rears are 12 wide, you have to get a wider front and a skinnier rear tire?
