This set up definately gives this sports car the aggressive stance it deserves.  When I took it on a quick test drive I was getting mad props on the street.  This car definately turns heads!!!  This car also had a Dinan exhaust system on it which I might add sounded pretty badass.  For all you 6 series owners out there this set up is easily doable with a very slight modification to the passenger side strut assembly.  Unless you run a 245/30/22 tire you will need to use a hammer and bang on the perch where the spring sits just to give it a couple extra millimeters of clearance.  After that 5 minute mod you are good to go!!!  I think with a slight drop this 650i would be soooooooooooo sick!!!!!

This was also the case for the guys over at Jones Motors, when they contacted us about adding a touch of originality to their customer’s car.  The stage was set – a stock 2006 Infiniti M45 that looked to be fresh off the showroom floor.  This car had class, and had style, but something was missing.  This needed something more to complete the overall look that the customer was going for.

We started off the transformation with a set of new shoes.  The wheel and tire package includes a staggered set of hyper silver MRR GT-1′s, 20×8.5 up front, with an aggressive 20×10 in the rear.  This package was made complete with a set of Nitto NT555 245/35/20 front and 275/30/20 rear tires.  Just this alone really set off the car, and gave it an aggressive look, especially with a 10 inch wide rear wheel.  The 4 inch rear lip made a bold statement and let everyone know what this car was all about.

Even with a daring wheel and tire combo, this car needed more, and the customer knew that as well as us.  Next on the list was a set of Eibach Pro lowering springs.  We wanted the car to hug the pavement, but still provide a great ride and excellent performance at the same time.  Eibach was the undeniable choice to meet these strict demands.  We installed the springs right here in our shop in Tempe, Arizona, and the results were unquestionable.  The car sat roughly 1.6 inches lower in the front and 1 inch in the rear, and had a nice aggressive stance.

With everything that was done to the car, the customer couldn’t have been happier.  We achieved every look he was going for – the car was sleek, low, and aggressive.  It had style now, and it had it’s own touch of originality that is unmatched by any other.  We were happy to help out a customer, our customer was happy with the end result, and fortunately, there will never be a case of identity crisis with this completely original M35.

Update 6/9/09:

Here is another M35 we installed 20″ staggered GT-1′s on.  This car is slightly newer than the first M35 we did and is a ’07 model with the OEM lip kit.  This car also was lowered with Tein H-Tech lowering springs.  This customer chose to run nothing but the best for tires, hence the 245/35/20 & 275/30/20 Toyo T1R’s.  This proves once again that you can’t go wrong with the clean, classy and sporty look of the Hypersilver MRR GT-1′s.
