FX35 :: 2009 Infiniti FX35

Overview Discussion
Actually with the camber they tuck. I rub slightly all the way around. Take a drimmel and at a slight angle knock off some of the plastic on the fender arches. And no they don't stick out, due to camber

.....Make sure you get the right off set.

How is the inner tire wear so far with the negative camber?

The inner tire wear is not too bad, I have seen worse. So far about 17K miles on the nittos. I think I can get about 22-24k out of them hopefully. The wife will soon be driving it more frequently, funny thing is she prefers stock rims LOL. I may be in the market for something more "stock like" perhaps GTR wheels...?
 
Love the ride! Other than the road noise, is the ride quality much harsher with than the stock 20" or did you BC coil/22" Rim combo balance the two out? I'm looking at rims right now and I'm worried that going for 22" will make the ride more harsh.
 
The 22"s will make the ride harsher, less sidewall is less cushion. The BC spring rates are a good deal firmer than stock so they will make the ride harsher as well. It will be noticeable, whether or not you like it is a matter of personal opinion. I like it, some people that ride in my car who aren't used to lowered cars think that something is wrong. If you drive on the highway mostly, it's not as bad. But if you live in the city and have lots of road imperfections, it is very, very noticeable.

Thanks, Shadow. My problem is I haven't experienced the difference between OEM and full coilovers, just springs. I'll never slam the car (only looking to do a 1.5" drop max), but would like a balance between tight suspension and comfort. I feel that the OEM is a little too loose. Is that something coils will fix to certain degree or can this all be accomplished with springs?
 
Sweet! Now I know exactly how my car would look if I chose to pick up a set of these wheels. I would also like to know your tire size and if you are rubbing. I currently have a 22x10 wheel that I am concerned about rubbing when I lower it on BCs
