Should I lower it ..Im thinking about it let me know what you guys think THANKS

 

Likin' the rims

Definitely lower that ... even if it's Eibachs

 

I like the rims. Lowering it will bring it all together.

 

Wheels look good! It'd be a crime to leave it at stock height. Some people just know they want to lower their ride, no questions asked. If that's not you though, get eibachs. I was skeptical, but am super glad I put them on. It handles better, and looks better. No negative side effects for me. Consider eibachs to be a gentle drop that is enough to get the job done.

 

No negative side effects? Let's keep it 100 here, I'm sure the ride is a bit more bouncy.... No?

 

Not that I've noticed. And I'm the type of person who takes way too long to make a decision about changing something such as nissans idea of how to engineer our suspension. Took me a long time to gather enough info and ask enough people about their experiences before I decided to do it myself. The ride is slightly stiffer, but I don't consider that a negative side effect because I didn't particularly care for how soft if was before (think: firm mattress vs soft mattress--no right or wrong choice). It is still a very comfortable ride, and to me the sacrifice in comfort, if you want to call it that, is more than made up for in the planted feel. The handling improvement has been wonderful. Of course driving style plays a large factor if you want to make use of the reduction in body roll, tighter feel, etc. But short of being a touch more likely to scrape now, I have not experienced any negative side effects. If I had if to do over it would have been the first mod I made to my car.

 

you should keep it 100% as said above regardless you will have camber that cant be corrected so your tires will wear unevenly with springs. I mean you can get the 350z camber arms or whatever but they require some modification for them to match up so that would be a negative to most about the tires

 

moar low

 

Lol. Coupla devil's advocates here. It's all good.

You're probably right about that. I'm not an expert in alignment issues, but I DO trust the guy who did my alignment after the lowering springs were installed. He told me it wasn't 100% back to where it was, but that the difference is so minor that I shouldn't be concerned in the slightest. It is very very close. I even offered to buy those camber arms and pay him for the install, but he declined saying it really isn't worth it. That's how close it is. I've probably only driven 10k-15k miles on these eibachs, and I've measured tread wear a a couple of times and have yet to see any uneven wear.

 

Nice rims and nice color Max. I almost went with those rims as well.

Definitely lower. It should of been the first thing I did.

 

lower it dont think twice u spent all that money at least give the car the best chance to looks its best



sorta like lifting weights and not wearing a tight shirt.....u feel me?

 

I always tint and drop my vehicles in the first week of ownership.
