another questiopn about eibach springs?

I was wondering how long the stock shocks on my 2001 AE maxima will last if i put eibach springs on my car? I plan on changing the shocks when they go bad. Also, do the eibachs get rid of most of the wheel gap?

I lasted a very long time with Eibachs on stock struts. Hogan lasted even longer.

Eibachs get rid of some wheel gap. Ground Controls will get ride of all your wheel gap.

What is the ride quality with ground controls vs. eibachs. Everyone compares h&r vs eibach. Im looking for h&r ride with ground control height,.......if that is possible.

<~~ Ground Controls
<~~ Eibachs

It's not possible to get H&R ride with GC height. You have to sacrifice one or the other.

Anyone with H&R's-- do the back tires ever rub with passengers in the back seat? My cousin was complaining about this in his civic coupe..thoguht is was a good question to ask before I go spend $700 on suspension!

Hmm H&R ride w/ GC height ? = Cut a Coil.

Any 5th Gener interested in my coilovers ? $1500 shipped takes it. Within the next 6 hours ?

Built by AST-Suspensions for Maxximum Tuning.
14 way adjustable KONI Shocks(Rebuildable)

hey dude, take care.

and since half the posts are off topic anyways, yo-its-ok, you think the spacers on the rear will look good even without a drop???

maybe i'll just do that so i can keep a smooth ride.
