Hopefully this weekend, Im finally getting some 18"x8.5 Momo Arrow wheels and 235/40/18 tires. My queistion is with what springs should I go and how low should I lower it? I don't want to drop it too low, since I have body kit on or should I go for coilovers instead of springs???

Take some time and use the search feature. There are many threads on suspension choices.

No one is actually ****ing with EuroMaxima99SE.
I don't use the search feature too. I have the same experience as you do with getting completely different thread topics than I searched for.

It you have 18"s, drop it at least 2", Intrax or Sprint springs would give you that drop. I've seen maximas on 18"s with H&R or Eibachs and to me, it's way too high. I have 19"s and I'm dropped a little over 3.5", and sometimes it still seems too high, but any lower and it would be undrivable around here. To me, the wheel well gap should be smaller than the sidewall height. That's what looks good to me, but everyone's opinion is gonna be different.

And yes, the search feature here sucks. Every time I try to use it, I can never, ever find what I'm looking for. I get about 20 posts with the right words, but not the info I'm looking for.
