Lowering my 350z - what do you recommend? Pics Available
Hi, I recently got Axis 19x9.5 installed in my rear, and I now have a whell gap because I got low profile tires.
I would like to lower my car by changing the springs. I've been looking at either Tein (.6 inch rear drop) or Tanabe (1.2 inch rear drop) .
I'm leaning towards the Tanabe's because I think the gap is big, but will such a drop mess up my cambers? What do you guys think I should get and why?
I have attached pics of my car.

Hotchkis - offers a drop somewhere in between the two choices you listed. Also, they drop the rear slightly more than the front which is needed on the 06's which seem to have more gap in the rear.
