Wheel gap with Eibach and H&R springs.

Like most Maximas, the front wheel gap is much larger than the rear, probably more than and inch larger. The car sits with the appearence of the front up and the rear down even with nothing in the trunk. If I went to Eibachs (1.3F-1.0R) or H&R (1.4F-1.3R) the car seems like it would still sit with the same nose-up attitude, only a little lower. Any suggestions or comments? I'm leaning toward the H&R's because of their softer, stock-like ride.

not ground controls.


As for the springs ... look at other manufacturers. Progress has a nice drop. B&G i think has a staggered drop. Check the stickies and see what other springs are out there and the drop they provide.

Me personally, I will have the progress springs here tomorrow. I like the drop it provides.

I once saw the Progress drop on Toylets car and it looked good. Looks like the car is a lowrider.
