What model of the Maxima do you have? SE, GXE, or GLE?

I just put on mine, and while there is some difference, it isn't as drastic as I would think from what others have posted. . . I have an SE though, and I am thinking that the difference in the suspension between the stock versions is the reason I don't feel much of a difference.

Oh and I am not thinking it is the roads. . . I did try roads that are really bad normally, and the difference is still minor, this is with Koni's, on 3 of the 4 wheels at least (I'll explain that one in another thread).

I think they suck. A good stock replacment for the money if the stockers are wore out. But for performance standpoint I think they suckazz.

My set-up wasn't as bad as I thought it would have been

I did the usuall susp mods Eibach/Tokico/Susp Tech all which were done the same time, big difference compared to stock. The first couple of weeks I had to get use to them, but now I feel it handles pretty good. Don't really have any other springs to compared them to, since I've only driven in cars with Eibach. Besides I have a 3rd gen and not too sure if the spring rates are the same between 3rd and 4th gens
