I am goign to nopi nationals on sat with my friends. I have a 2001 AE maxima. I want to lower my car a little so i can get rid of the wheel gap(i hate that wheel gap). I know they are gonna have eibach, intrax, and suspension techniques springs there. Which are the best for my car?(any i didnt mention) Also would i need to buy new shocks or an alignment kit? AND Would the bottom of my car get really scraped up? How can i prevent that?

Anyone..please help me

where do u live? my drop is lower than urs and ive only scrapped twice, and thats only cuz i forgot my car was lowered..went over bumps too fast, but i dont scrape on a regular basis.....im guessing ur not gonna find em at the nopi's but i have progress springs, and they have lower drop than eibachs and h&rs.....good performance as well....

do you have a pic of your car with the motegi's? i want the mr7's too!

and i got the progress springs too, and i live in NYC which means pot hole city. im happy with what i got, i go up ramps and bumps side ways and its all good. only scraped my muffler once and it didnt leave a mark.
