H&R's worth it for $100 ?

This kid at school is selling some H&R springs that were on his car for about 6 months for 100 bucks, i know they arent the best, but I am a high schooler on a tight budget and it would get ride of the 4x4 look, you guys think i should go for it for 100?

PS-I dont know jack **** about suspension

H&Rs actually ARE one of the top rated springs for our cars. Everyone that has 'em loves 'em. They'll be firmer than stock, so unless you plan on autocrossing, they'll be firm enough. $100 is a good price, I don't think you'll regret it.

If you do this and plan on putting them on stock struts you need to realize that the struts will blow fairly quickly (which may not be a good thing for a highschooler on a budget). So if you decide to put them on stockers, start saving for new struts.

H&R's gives the Maxima a nice clean finished look. They handle excellent, reduce body roll and maintain a nice ride as well. H&R is one of the top German spring manufactures providing aftermarket sport springs for high end luxury sports cars. Couple them with Tokico Illumina struts and you'll have a sweet setup.

H&Rs are great springs for our cars...just like you have read in many posts before mine. But if you are looking for that lowered or slammed look, don't get these. These are more for upgrading the suspension on handling more over than looks.

Anyways, i and other members definitely get these springs NOW. I got my H&Rs for $150 off of ebay. But $100 is dirt cheap for great springs.

And if you don't want them, someone on the org will take them from your friend for a sweet $100
