SLAMMED ON KSPORT COILOVERS .. FINALLY & MORE!!

Sup guys.. thought i'd share some pics w/ yall of my recent mods... 2008 maxima SE w/ 18" rims slammed on ksport kontrol pro coilovers. Dropped 4" in the front leaving me with 5" off the ground in the front & 9" in the rear. The ride is pretty decent IMO.. ofcourse w/ majority of the suspensions setups out there you'll feel the bumps more but its not bouncy or anything. Other mod's added are the racingline FTSB, yellow hid fogs, e&g mesh grill, fujita CAI & of course the LED tail lights. I've been getting a ton of compliments on the taillights.. people pulling up at the side of me while driving asking where i got them from.. well anyway here are some pics for now.. ill add some more later. Enjoy!!

Roads decent in NY? lol no way.. but the roads i use just about all the time i know where bumps are n what not so i usually slow down or go around em.

You mean the front piece where it has the weather strip on? I originally took that part off but the engine bay kept gettin really dirty so i put it back on & it keeps the engine bay clean.

Thanks.. NY roads suck but i usually take the same roads to get around & i know where the bad parts are so i get around em... Next mods are probably exhaust system, headers & rims..

X2!!!! That is one hella drop yo! I thought just by putting Eibach springs on mine it got lower. Where did you get the K2's? What website, how much & can I use my existing Eibach springs. Did you get a complete (4) kit or just the front? Any help on getting mine lower would greatly be appreciated.

If there is anyway you can get that wheel in anything but chrome, it'd look 10x better...

And yeah a 245/35/20 will be prime. I suggest 19" though if you don't mind.
