As far as a review. The springs provide for a better or softer ride than the stock Nismo springs without sacrificing handling in my opinion. In fact I would say its better given the wider and lower stance in combination with the spacers. I am still on stock tires and I really like the look. I have a very steep drive way and I am able to get in and out of it with little scraping.

As far as the drop, its definitely lower than advertised. It's about 1.5" as other have attested too. The wheels will rub all so slightly if you turn them fully, which I seldom do.I also attach my alignment specs for your review. I do not have toe bolts or a camber kit.

I would like to give Fuct props for providing me with information and support in coming to a decision. You the man!
glad i could help, but im curious about the items i highlighted above. the teins are a much higher spring rate. im shocked you find them softer than the factory springs.

and you rub? where? ive never experienced this.

Hi Nick, been waiting to hear from you. +1 for your assistance . Okay, I guess what I mean by a softer ride is that the ride is not harsh or rigid IMO. Yeah, you will feel bumps such as potholes, deep ruts and ridges, but the over all ride seem smoother. I doesn't swim or float by any means. As far as the rub I have only heard\felt it on a couple of occasions. It was not much of anything and maybe not worth mentioning, but I hit the send button. It has not done it since I posted the thread.

I love the look...the drop is just right and with my new AAM exhaust, its mo sexy!

I was pretty cool...my wife had not really paid much attention to the car since the spring install and just before we left to go shopping this weekend she got in the car and then got out right away and said what did you do to the car...its really low...aren't your tires going to rub. I laughed said and said nope, its all good. When got to Sam's Club she did another inspection and said I think your tires might be rubbing! I just shock my head and laughed.
