My drop is modest.....I got Eibach Pro Kit with 1.3" drop in front and 1" in back. I have 245/45 18" wheels. Looks great to me:
FRONT:
REAR:
For me I dont like to slam the car down to the ground scrapping ants off the street as I'm driving with the tire all under the fender wall. But everyone has different taste.

what muffler?? on the black car i had a Greddy EVO.... and its cool if you dont like the side exit.. it DEF isnt for everyone.... and dont worry im not gonna lose any sleep over your lost Respect.....
at first it was gonna be a temporary fix... but after a few weeks to a month i started to like the sound...so i decided to keep it.

Have you thought about doing a race car style side exit so it looks more flush? There are exhaust tips called Dr. Gas Boom Tubes that would probably look really good. I've seen them before on a few street cars.

Im also slammed and loooooving it. I havent broken an axel ever since I upgraded. they are the 99 to 03 axles or what not, little longer. Im dropped about 4 inches all around, and yes, I scrape eeeeeeeeeevery little speedbump. I will post pics up later but it tucks in about half an inch all around. On d2 coilovers.

I just drooled a little on my shirt. Gorgeous man.
there's something to be said about tucked wheels, I have to say. The poke look is too far, the flush look is nice, but tucked does have a place as long as you keep those wheelwells clean, it' looks very nice, and way more functional.
Especially with this car's crappy turning radius, tucked wheels help a lot.
Waaaay better option if you're going side exit. A big dumb bent up pipe is just aweful in so many ways, if I saw that on the street I'd literally laugh out loud, try to take a picture, and post it in here: http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...al-ricers.html

This is a pic of the Boom Tubes I was talking about. They've been used in racing for years, and have been popular in the lowrider scene as well since they have good clearance. There are different styles/sizes to choose from, but if I were to add side exit, I would use one of these, and hit it with some black ceramic header paint. A friend who has an SRT 8 Grand Cherokee put these on his electric cutouts, one on each side.

I really like the flat piping, looks clean, im designing something right now that will have 6 little pipes going up through the car and exit through the sunroof so llc it can push the car down. Heat shouldnt be a problem. I heard that barbeque paint keeps in the heat so I will sprsy the outside and also the inside. Should be sick.
