I am thinking about lowering my max, however I dont know that if it does have some advantages other than the look. And what kind of parts are involved to this beside the lowering springs? How much should it be for the parts and labor? How many inches should it be lowed? Please advice. Thanks in millions.

 

Other then the look and a bit better cornering, there is no other advantage of lowering your car.

If you enjoy driving a well made, good handling, smooth riding 4 door sedan, leave the car at the stock ride height. Put some nice struts and shocks in such as Tokico Illuminas and you'll enjoy the ride and handling even more so then a lower harsher riding setup.

If you want to close the wheel gap a bit and fly around exit ramps, throw a set of H&R springs and Tokico Illuminas on the car.

 

if ur going to lower.....dont go any lower than 1.5" H&Rs or Eibachs.....OEM struts wont hold up to stiffer springs for very long you'll want to get I would suggest Illuminas.....u can do the labor yourself....parts will be around 500 give or take depending on the deals u find

 

Lowering definately improves handling but for day to day driving its pain.
At least in my area I cannot take it inside my apartment or my kid's school because entrences are slightly inclined and front bumper scrathes badly. Infact car's lip kit is almost knocked off the car and now hanging on by a tape.

And you know what most insurance compnies will not give you insurance if they know you have modified the suspenstion on your car ( I was refused insurance from Ameriprise, Allstate, Progressive gave quite high rates) IMHO not worth the pain.

 

No!!! Sure it looks cool but you'll be redoing the entire suspension soon...this also depends on how much u drive and where u live. I would ride stock ..it looks fine.

 

thanks for sharing. I think I will stick with the stock for now.
