coilovers with stock shocks
im getting tired of the body roll in my maxima, i have a 89 SE, and it feels like im on a tilt a whirl when i drive anyway, i like the look of a lower car and i know it good for handling, do eibach spring with stock shocks work well, or do i really have to do both to get marked improved handling. also would just new performance shocks lessen the body roll and tighten the wheel better than the just the springs, if you could also let me know was you guys have paid with installation thatd be cool, thank you , and i already slapped myself for the newbie questions, i did do a search though

Re: coilovers with stock shocks
coilovers with stock shocks not a good idea stock shocks are mushy. Once you go higher speeds your car will feel firm with aftermarket shocks. And if you live in pothole kingdom like I do goodluck ride wont be that great.
