I'm looking to buy a set of lowering springs and struts for my Max within the next 8 weeks. I'd like 1.5in drop and don't want to spend more than 500 for the parts. Any ideas

 

You can buy just springs and put them on stock struts, but I don't recommend that.

 

I wouldn't do that...my struts are shot. I figured since I have to replace them anyway, why not get good ones

 

It won't cost under $500 especially if you're not doing the install yourself.

 

do it right the first time... save up a bit more... it'll be worth it in the long run...

go for illuminas definately... and just pick some springs according to your "taste" for ride quality from here: http://maxmods.dyndns.org

take care...

 

How are ebay packages..I've been seein tein struts with springs included for like $499 and kyb packeges too...all under 500 before shiping

 

The tein H-techs would be good, but what are the struts? You should also probably replace some of the other stock parts.
