If by DUMPED you mean slammed, or rediculously low, I'd say go with sprints...I got H&R's and I love the finished not SLAMMED look...and it handles 100 times better. I think the Eibachs will give you the same LOOK just perform a little better then the H&R's, i know for a fact they ride harsher...or you could do a Civic Coil Chop...

When you put those eibachs on and show someone that doesnt know maximas will think your max was still on stock springs. No spring will slam your car. you will need a coilover setup to accomplish that. sprint will be the lowest you will get with springs but that still really wont be slammed or "dumped"

ya my car is on maxspeeds( 1.5" )all around and you can't even notice it lowered unless i park next to a stock hight maxima. I wish i went with something with more of a drop but with the snow in CT im glad i only got 1.5 drop.

sprints give the car a look like the front struts are blown and the front sags while the rear sits higher.. sorry but to sprints.
eibachs look lowered, not stock. plus, they perform better than sprints.

I wouldn't know if the performance for Eibachs is better or not, have you driven a car with Sprints? The Eibachs don't lower the car close to enough, it would look stock to most ppl.
