Hey guys and dolls,
Picking up a '13 manual z roadster w/sport and nav next monday. Trading in my '11 G37xS coupe and I have a couple of quick questions..

My G has a Eibach pro kit on it and H&R 15mm spacers all around. Obviously the springs will stay on the car but I'm considering keeping the spacers as they'll fit the Z I think.

What do you think the spacers will look like on a stock roadster? I may get it lowered once I've had it for while (Eibachs again.. but I'm not sure. I couldn't take the 4x4 ride height of the G37x..lol

Also, I'm planning on driving this all yr round and I've been driving awd cars since 1999 .. I have 18" alloys and Blizzak LM's from the G37 that are supposed to fit.

Any comments??

BTW, the new ride is cherry black with wine roof and seats and I live in Kitchener...

Cheers!!

Welcome. I like your colour choice. Wine interior looks real good. Keep all you can from your G and try the fit on your roadster.

Thanks! I'll install the 15mm's for now as I'm sure there an improvement on stock. If I need more, I'll upgrade and dump the 15's on Kijiji..

I'm also considering a lowering kit and was wondering who the resident expert is on that topic on this forum?
