Also, try the search function in the top right corner for the abundance of information regarding this topic including numerous pics.
As for me, I think I'm gonna try Maxspeed springs and KYB GR2s.

Springs:
H&R or Eibach - Both yield about the same 1.5 inch drop, Eibach is slightly firmer.
Struts & rear Shocks:
For a smoother ride couple them with Tokico Struts and Shocks.
For a firmer, sportier ride get KYB GR2 struts and shocks
For adjustable performance get KYB AGX struts and shocks
There are more choices of springs to go with, some drop the car to much and sacrifice ride comfort for looks. H&R and Eibach are the best springs you can put in a 4th gen Maxima, they ride good and handle excellent.

If you want to look lowered, do not get Eibach or H&R springs! Neither give a lowered look.
Go with Sprint or Intrax to look lowered. Both require cutting (Sprints: rear, Intrax: front) to make perfectly level, but you'll love the look.
I wouldn't trade my Sprint/AGX setup for anything.
It all depends on what you're going for: ride comfort or appearance.

I agree with araffio, 1.5 doesn't looks like much of a drop, but I guess anything is better than stock 4x4 I think it would also depednd on your location and how good the roads/conditions were. I live in Maine, so 2 inches might be to low for me, though if i get 18's the should jack the over all car heigh up a bit so 2 inches might just return the car back to height, and remove the wheel gap. at least thats what im hoping for

Where did you ever hear that 18's jack the car up? If you put the proper size tire on, your ride height will not change with 18s.

I had Eibachs for about a year now and never was satisfied with the drop. It handled great but still didn't give an agrressive stance to me. Now I'm going with Sprints as soon as Cumalot recieves my money order.
