I have a question about whats the ride quality is like with drop springs and kyb gr2...i understand better handling...
I live in NYC...and the roads here are not perfect....right now I'm riding on stock, I recently had to replace the front struts...(stock struts).....I have a 2006 max..now with 33,000 miles and when i change them when the car was around 18000 miles....
Im thinking of the alternative's cause I know from reading here and talking to my mechanic that the stocker's suck. he recommended KYB AGX strut, but again..the handling will be better but all together a rough ride. I already did agx on my 96 max...it was ok, but rough....
I do want to do springs and struts...cause I know soon the stock ones will give out....
progressive or eibachs springs? with what struts?
ride quality?
recommend I stay with stock cause I live here in NYC?

 

Go with Tein S-Tech lowering springs and stock structs.. Thats what I did.. You got to remember with any after market suspension you will alwayz get a stiffer ride quality.. I like the Tein S-Tech.. Had them on my 2K Max and now on my 08.. I live in Boston and we are pretty much pot hole city..

 

thanks for the reply. how are those pot holes and rough roads treating you with that set up?

 

It still has comfort when it hits a pit hole but you get the stiffness bounce and rebound.. Other than that.. I would prefer lowering springs over coil overs.. I had eibach ground control coil overs on my 96 maxima and my opinion.. I would only do coil overs again if I lived in an area with flat, smooth roads.. Some where down south or out west..
