Great find, the next check then it's on!!

It appears that they maintain the original ride comfort but improve in the areas of handling and of course the dredded Maxima "wheel gaps"!!

If you get them installed I'd be very curious to see how much the labor is (unless you do it yourself).

Also, are there any risks installing lowering springs and keeping the stock shocks/struts- will they eventually blow out?

I have Vogtlands in my 02 and they are pretty nice. Definatly firmer than the stock setup but not kidney brusing bad. My only complaint is the drop is even and it makes the rear look a little saggy but other than that not bad at all.

This looks great I haven't crawled under my Max yet but with it being lowered 1.4" what is the lowest hanging piece on the car? I don't think 1.4" is anything to worry about I think I might jump on this as my next mod I just need to take a look at the undercarriage. AWESOME FIND!!

Vogtland Springs on my 03 maxima

I have them on my 03 maxima. with the illumina struts set at 3...and man!

How many other a33 owners have slammed drops with 20's. I rubbed in the rear all the time, went to 19's g35;s still rubbed, now im down to 350z anniversary wheel...we will see.

Rides nice, but its soft overall, illumina to blame i think tho.

Man, I finally went to order these things but then I see that they charge $30 for Shipping and I was like WTF?

IMO $30 is way too much for shipping, now I'm gonna do a search on Ebay to see if I can find these springs or something compatible but maybe the same price without the Shipping Charge.
