must be really crappy springs if they're giving it away like candy.

IMO, spend the money and get springs you can trust.

yeah but thats IF they have springs for your car. its nice to have free springs, but they're probably really low quality. maybe sell them when you get them for a few bucks and get s. techs of you're on a budget.

oh yeah, i almost got my enkies from the same place, but instead bought them from american tire co because i was able to choose what tires i wanted and if anything went wrong i could just go down the street to get it fixed.

yea, well the guy said there good quality, although i highly doubt that, and he said that they have them in stock for my car and will lower the car 1.7", and i remember that thread about somebodys gonna slap the next person that asks if they need a camber kit, but do I?, lol

any time u drop a car r change the factory ride height u need a camber kit no matter how drastic the change ur tires will wear differently and u will need to change ur tires more often

you don't need a camber kit if you don't mind camber wear

yea, i heard that if u dont lower it more then 2 inches, you dont need a camber kit, but i also hear that if everytime you lower it, you need to get an alignment, if i get an alignment, will it minimize the camber wear at all, or do i definetly need to get a camber kit no matter what, cuz i dont really have the money at the time for struts/shocks and a camber kit, there gonna have to wait awhile to get done, and my friend lowered his GTI with ground control coilover thingys, but no struts or shocks or anything, just the coils like skunk 2 makes, and his stock struts/shocks have held up for 3 months so far and the ride is a little bouncy, but he hasnt had any camber wear, and lowered it 2.25 inches, i think i should be fine, but if i start to see camber wear, il probly get the camber kit ASAP, and il post up pics probly monday or so with my new rims, side skirts on again, and lowering springs, i cant wait!

i read a forum somewhere on camber kits not being a necessity but RECOMMENDED.. so being the *** muncher i am i didnt buy them.. i just tore throught the rear end of my kumhos .....ive had no problem with wear in the front. but the back is hideous. i lowered 2 inches

maxspeeds are cheap but they are alright... my friend has them on his MAxima and it's fine..... but I dont think they are progressive springs so the ride might not be to your liking.

As curiousfish said, I've had the last generation of Maxspeed springs on my maxima for over a year now. They are great springs, don't give a harsh ride at all. I would recommend them.
