I want to lower my 2005 maxima, 1 inch over all . I was wandering if this would work.

Eibach Pro Kit Lowering
Ride Height Drop (inch)
Front: 2 inch
REAR: 0.8 inch


TY

 

Go with Cattman springs like I have. Remember the front is higher than the rear. The Cattman springs drop it more in front than in rear so wheel gap is the same

 

Good pics of the new 2007 Maxima

what does this have to do with lowering a maxima..... there are about 10 pages talking about the 2007 AXTIMA..... POS.... IMO...... ok getting back to the subject...... they make all different types of lowering springs for the max..... I mean there is Eibach, Sprint, Cattman, and H&R..... compare them to see what you feel will be the best..... what will drop your car to the height you want and go from there..... look in the Modification section if you haven't allready..... they talk about lowering springs there...... good luck

 

I like how coilovers look personally.

 

Check out the stickies. There is a lot of information there.

 

I quess you are looking to get banned. Read the rules

 

Thats the setup I have and love them. I don't understand why you only want 1" and asking about Eibach's which will lower the front 2"???

 

how much did you drop your maxima??

 

2" in the front and .08" in the rear with the EiBach Pro lowering kit. Love the drop, love the look, love the handling...

Check out my web site, all picks of my ride are with the lowering kit...

i was just wondering if that looks even?
like the front of the car is not to low compared with the rear
2 inch front and 0.8inch rear


PS: The car looks nice, is that a 18inch wheels?
where can i get a EMBLEM for the rear, and another one for the grill?

 

Yes there are 18" wheels on Tenzo-R lightweight racing rims. The rear emblem can be purchased at:

Most other emblems I have purchased on Ebay motor's, just do a search, you'll find them, good luck...

 

Can i use this to lower the car??

Or do i still have to get a lowering spring like this one:

Cause i was thinking with the tein coilover i can drop the car 2 inch, so i dont have to get a lowering spring and change the spring on the coilover.
Am i right??

 

Well, you should know price is a difference. IMO coilover's are superior for handling and stiffining the suspension. The tradeoff with coilovers is a harder ride and if you go bigger on your rims (18's ------> 19's, 20's, 22's) the harder the ride will get. I personally like Eibach or Progress lowering springs and they still improve handling, "the dip" and will lower your ride for a nice look. The biggest factor is what are your daily driving conditions, what are your performance goals and what type of feel do you want.

I have Eibach's because us older folks like both performance and ride comfort...

 

My goal is to lower the car and have good performance at the same time.
Thats why i wanna get the coilover for the performance and still be able to lower the car plus, im getting a ADR M Classic Silver ,20x8.5 offset:40.
I think it will look nice.

Whta you think, good idea to get a coilover for performance and lowering the car?

 

first thing.... coilovers are nice...... but..... they can make your ride a little stiffer than what you are used to..... plus putting 20's on it will add to the stiffness too.... bigger rim smaller tire..... another thing you wanna look at is where the car will sit with the 20's on it..... you might not want to lower it until you put the 20's on..... nice choice by the way.... adr m series are nice...... there are a couple guys on here with 20's that might be able to give a couple pointers..... and brands..... ohh tein is coming out with the SS's which will allow for digital dampening..... that is what I am waiting for..... deffinitly nice..... adjust the dampening while at the track or cruisin for better comfort or a siffer race track ride......

 

I personally think you should go with at least a 35mm offset to get the rims more flush with the fenders.

 

Soo thats what an offset means, a 40mm is going to be outside of the fender. right? I want it to be flush with the finder soo ill get the 35mm.
And im not going to get 20's , im going to get this.

BTW: thanks po8pimp

 

I am a bit late chiming in on this but, if you drive everyday then you may want to re think the coilovers. That is a harsh ride for some. I have the progress and I only put the front on and it pretty much leveled the car out. And if you are gonna get bigger wheels just go ahead an get the 20's. imo those wheels you picked are ugly. they don't fit the lines of the car. just my .02

 

doesnt the 05 maxima come with coilovers?? the stock coilovers?
I was thinking and aftermorket coilovers would improve the ride at the same hight, am i right? it would be overall improvment ovet the stock stuff

 

No it does not come with coilovers. struts and springs on the front and shock and springs on the rear. Coilovers will give you better handling but not a better ride.

 

im pretty sure tanabe makes some lowering springs. they have a good drop on them

 

TY for clearing that for me, i did not know that
