Hey guys....for those of you who have progress springs, can you tell me what you think about the ride quality? Like, is it crap-I-got-rattles-developing-everywhere harsh, or is it firmer than stock but still compliant. I'm taking your previous suggestion and going with the Illuminas, so if you guys have this set-up please chime in. Also, if you happen to know the spring rates, that would be great.

Thanks

 

kevlo has progress springs on illuminas... he hasn't had it on for long - but his initial thought was it rode great.

 

Have them linked up with Tokico Blue's. Car rides nice, it is stiff but not to the point where it raddles your fillings out. I am happy with their product. Check out their rear sway bar. This is something to think about after the drop.

 

Right know I have Progress with Koni yellows. My first impression was that it rode pretty damn well, and I still think that it does. But stock obviously rides significantly better. Car handles very well now though. Ride height is just about where I want it, but I'm getting some annoying scraping sounds every once and awhile, in addition to axle knock whenever I take a corner hard.

 

I just switched to a KYB AGX/Progress combo a few days ago. So far I'm very happy with the springs. Handling is definitely improved, and the ride is firmer than stock but not jarring by any means. They give a very nice looking drop also.

 

Would the Progress springs fall be more stiffer then H-techs and lower then S-techs?

Orginally i wanted to go with the illuminas/ with toicko springs or H-techs. I didn't like reviews of S-techs. But now i've been looking at Progress cuases its a lower drop.

 

progress is not a lower drop than s-techs

 

I loved my Progress Springs - they are the most underrated springs for the Maxima IMO. The handling is great, the ride quality is good - theyre a perfect mix of performance, looks, and ride quality. If I were ever to buy another Maxima or sell my coilovers Id buy them again no questions asked.

 

Where can one reliably buy a set of these springs for a good price?

 

Got mine from Cattman http://www.cattman.com/

Theyre a great company.
