I pumped my tires air pressure to 40psi,it is much quieter than the 35psi that Nissan advice,maybe less contact patch is the reason.?

You know I could really care less about all of the smart *** post made here after I thought I could share some information that others might find informative.

I lowered this car as I have many before but I have never gotten the added benifit of such a noticable difference in road noise before--yes I immediately had the car aligned--no its not the contact patch of the tire that is making the difference. Yes my wife noticed the car was quieter and not because her mouth was shut.

I'm serious, the difference is like being in a different car---I guess what I am trying to tell you folks out there is if your going to change out your springs anyway you may wish to consider the other changes I made along with it.
I'm no puppy and have changed out many things over the years--this change / results of change is a real plus

I think the info is kool. But you did a lot at one time... are you sure it was the springs oonly that changed this? I would like to know which companies you used to obtain your parts? And do you have some pics? :)

Don't mind these *kids*, thanks OP for the post. Anything we can try to reduce the noise is a PLUS in my book.

Um some have been known to lower their car for looks/performance??? Thats why?
