pretty sure eibach only released the pro kit for the 2007+ altima.

i was only able to find one from a google search, but i'm sure some others could chime in and help you out.

@Innovazn pro-kit lowers it 1" rear and 1.5" front. proline does 1.5 rear and 2.0 front something like that, but sportline does make it lower. And yes I did some research and you're right @mattyfo0z there is only pro-kit for my car. I'll be getting them in a few days!!!

AWSOME!!! You have the same setup I want for wheels! How do you like the eibach with the rays? Do you have any problems with them like it scratching on bumps or anything? Do you have a staggered set up? if so, whats the sizes?

The ride height it great for me. It's much lower than stock, but still high enough the I don't scrub on everything. There are a few speed bumps that I have to go around, but for the most part I clear an average one. I've only ever had the rears rub once and that was with some heavy people in the back going too fast through a crowned intersection. Otherwise I haven't had any rubbing issues. Mine are staggered 19x8 +30 at 19lbs with 225-40/19 tires on the front and 19x8.5 +33 at 21lbs with 245-40/19 tires on the rear.

Personally I think I should have went with a 235 on the fronts because they look noticeably stretched in comparison to the rear tires. The rear have the perfect amount of sidewall (in my opinion).

If you want any more pictures let me know. I washed it yesterday so it's actually clean for once.

I'll keep that 235 in mind! Right now I have the same rear size as you but 225-35 on the front. That's how I bought them a few days ago! I need to replace the rear cause they're pretty worn out. Some side pictures would be nice! To check out how well it looks! I'm thinking of installing the Eibachs next month!!

I tried to get a few from side and a few angles showing how flush they are. Mine have some rash on each, but I got a great deal on them so I'm still happy. I'll get them refinished when I have the time and money.

Thanks! They really fill out the wheel wells pretty well, sit close to flush, and look aggressive enough without being over the top. First time i've ever owned lipped wheels, and first time going bigger than 17" and I have to say I am quite happy with them. Our roads aren't prefect but they're better than a lot of places so 40 series tires haven't been too harsh in comparison to the last set I had.
