Hows the ride quality? Any trouble going up any drive ways or speed bumps? I'm trying to find out what springs to get, so any info would be nice . Also were you able to get your alignment back to spec. Sorry for thr 20 ?'s

Perfect drop IMO...1" all around. Anything less leaves something to be desired. The only thing I don't like about the Eibach's is the fact that it is a progressive spring.. Than again there aren't many linear ones for the Z with the same drop

Ride quality feels pretty much like stock, and speed bumps i have no problem with, only with with drive ways. Got to get use to pulling out of driveways at an angle. Alignment i will do as soon as springs settle in all the way. As far as i know, eibach o and sprint springs offer the lowest drop. IMO anything lower than eibachs, you should consider coilovers, camber kit.

im just glad I finally decided what wheel to go with. Even before i got my z, I was debating what wheel to go with, volk or work. I know alot of people arent into the whole work meister look, but after seeing RIcks car (status design) no question in my mind. I went with really agressive offsets, and 11" wide in rear. I hope gold complements black , or im screwed. Seen a couple of pics of gold on black, but not the wheel im getting. We'll see.

The wait is killing me. ITs only been 1 day.
