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..

Thanks!!.. I didnt actually measure 4" but i figured if usually w/ springs you get a 2" drop which normally gives you 7" of clearence off the ground then I must have a 4" drop seeing that i have 5" of clearence off the ground lol. No rubbing as of yet & i hope it stays that way..

The only time I rub is at speed when I hit a drop on the freeway, like where the end of a bridge re joins the highway. I have lost a couple of fender liners and you can see where it rubs as there a hold worn through mine currently...

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.

Coilovers replace the entire Spring/shock/strut setup, so no the Eibachs will not be needed...

And here's a good deal on a set:

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.
