someone said if you wanna slam these coils aren't for you.... what's the range on these? I just want the top of my tire to be level with the wheel well. Maybe a bit lower than that just for kicks sometimes or show...
Others said these will let you dump your car to the ground or something. So who's right?

If you have all CF rear, which is uber light like I do.. you can not slam it, but you can get the 'perfect' (IMHO) drop.

I'm also wondering if 12k/10k is what I should get if I am performance oriented yet don't want to have an extremely crappy ride. I think 10k/8k might be too soft. I can find these answers I think I want to get these BC coils, sounds like they are just right.

Also... there are 2 models available for the G35; VS and VH. So VS model allows you to adjust the spring rates also? I think that might be interesting. I'm a noob when it comes to coilovers, but I want full functionality, because I'll be exploring the different settings. Which one of these is worth getting for me?

If you are concerned about drop height in rear, just get the optional lower springs in the rear from Josh (IMPORTIMAGE). He will hook it up! I got the perfect ride height with mine. Tires are tucked in under fender about 1/4''.

10/8 is your better bet, especially for mixed use
