Simply put, yes. I have the prokits and my front are -1.8 and rears are at -2.9 if i remember correctly. With the sportlines having a bigger drop you can imagine whats going to happen. / \

I've got an '06 base with Tenzo 19's (8.5 front 20 offset and 10.5 rear 25 offet) with T1R 245/35 and 275/35 and was wanting to drop it about an 1" to 1.5" just to get it looking right. I think i've narrowed it down to the GF210's or Pro kit but havent ruled any out. It is my dd and dont wanna get a headache driving around town from. I need some ideas b4 Christmas. Any suggestions would be helpful cause im sitting like a 4x4 right now :/

Hmmm I was looking some spring and noticed that eibach doesn't list sportlines for 350z only pro-kits? Where did you get the sportlines?

2 of my friends bought the Eibach sportlines from ebay and it was a dramatic drop from stock. Rides great.
