Question about coilover springs for 95-99 Maxima?

I've got a question? I just bought coilover springs for my 95 max, I know you can use your factory struts with it but, I don't want to. My question is do I have to buy the adjustable struts in order to have the best ride with the coilover springs? Or can I buy just the KYB yellows or the Tokico HP blues and get by with it? Or am I just sounding like a complete idiot and don't know what I'm talking about? Let me know Thanks, guys

im guessing you mean coil springs. anyways what springs did you buy?
regarding your strut question: whenever you buy lowering springs, it is highly recommended to get new struts. what kind of ride are you wanting? soft, oem style ride? stiffer ride? what? How low are you going to be? what are the spring rates? How much are you willing to spend? etc. Search and you will find a LOT of information regarding these questions.

Popular setups:
Adjustable struts (good for any spring):
-KYB AGX - tends to be pretty stiff
-Koni Yellow - modification needed to fit OEM housing. one of the best overall Dampers for the maxima
-Tokico Illumina - softer dampening than AGX's

Non adjustable struts (meant for OEM replacement, minimal drop):
-KYB GR-2
-Tokico HP Blue
