I'm planning on dropping the Max soon,but not sure what set up to go with.I'll be putting on a new set of 20's next week and don't want any rubbing issues.What set up would give me a slight drop and decent ride that looks nice.Also, what would i be looking at spending? Thanks.

 

no spring will give you a decent ride when you're on 20s. Sorry.

Heavy wheels + tiny tire sidewall = crap ride, no matter what spring you use. Not to mention crap performance.


now I'm sure plenty of people will come on here and jock you up for getting 20s, but I just want you to remember what I said above when you come back here in 2 weeks and complain about the ride quality

If 20's are what you want, then just know that the tradeoff is ride quality. It's your choice!

 

^ What he said... + Infinity!

 

I think i've decided to go with either the K sports or Nex coilovers.Which in your opinion is the better product?

 

Go with the Boss Chens. Talk to Larrio Motors

But seriously, don't go 20s, the ride will be so uncomfortable even with stock suspension it's horrible, these small side walls on the wheels will kill you.

 

Not going with coilovers.I was thinking on getting the Tokico HP strut and spring set cuz i just want a light drop riding on 20s,and i dont want to spend a ton of cash.Is that a good setup to go with?

 

yep, that setup should work fine....well, except for the boat anchor 20s.

 

Nex coilovers for maximas?

 

dont do 20's you must be.. nevermind

 

has anyone used Zenn lowering springs off ebay

 

Hey maxima985spd, How did you drop your car? with wat springs and struts?

 

KSport Coilovers!!!!

 

Def going with Tokico Blues struts but havent decided on springs- either Eibach prokits or H&Rs.Which is better fellas?

 

word of advice:

Don't buy stupid ricer brand springs off egay. Buy yourself some well-known NAME BRAND springs like Eibach or H&R. Those ricer lowering springs on ebay that nobody has heard of have several drawbacks:
- who knows if the spring rate is correct for the car. The wrong spring rate could make ride and handling WORSE than stock....and could be dangerous.
- who knows the quality of the metal....having a spring break while driving is no fun at all....
- who knows if there are any quality or consistency standards on this stuff...

Just buy a name brand spring. It's worth the extra money to get something that is KNOWN quality and performance. If you can't afford the extra $100 to buy name-brand springs, you shouldn't be modding your car at all.

The extra money spent is well worth it. Remember, your springs are working all the time...even when you're going 90mph on the highway or taking a hard turn. You don't want them to suck.

Spend $200, get some Eibachs, and make sure you buy good struts too. Aftermarket springs will blow your stock struts in short order.

KYB AGX (maaaaaaybe GR-2 if you're uber cheap), Tokico Illumina, Koni Yellow or nothing, in order of besterestness. Kthx.

 

Dude, you live in PA and want 20's? PA roads are not very kind to low profile tires. If saving money is concern you probably don't know how much 20's and good tires cost, let alone good quality struts and springs.

Tokico Blues are very stiff and do NOT have any adjustment, I would advise saving up for adjustable Illuminas.

 

Just for your information,ive been riding on dubs wrapped in toyo proxes for 2 summers now without any complaints.And yes,im going with illuminas with h&r springs

 

20's stock height f***it drive. pics in afew days

 

if there is going to be talk of 20s in this thread, I'm moving it to the general forum. Don't want that gayness up in here.
