So guys i just bought myself a set of the a34 nismo wheels in silver and im running 245/40/19 tires with them. Now what im going crazy over is which set of springs should i buy. The H&R springs drp the front 1.5 and 1.4 back while the eibachs drop the front 1.4 and 1.0 in the back. I would like to know if i got with h&r will i rub and would it look nicer with the lower drop or should i just go with the eibachs .

i have a sedan, but here is my opinion

if you don't care about comfort and if you don't ever drive anyone around, it's just you in the car and no one else, get h & r im sure it will look good, but ride bad.

if you get the eibachs, which i have, the ride quality won't be great, but will probably be better than the h&r springs, but you will be able to have 4 people in the car with no worries of rubbing.

so my opinion is eibachs!!! plus eibachs test their products on each generation of vehicle, i heard h&r take short cuts

ok so i have the H&R's and i love them. it makes the car feel much tighter and gives it a sexier stance IMO. but to your question, you definitely shouldn't rub because i'm about to buy 19's with 245/35/19 tires and i've checked everything and talked to people and i shouldn't rub

I have the H&R's in my sedan and love them!. Since they are a progressive spring when you are driving normally they are really no different from stock, I have had many people tell me how comfortable my car is riding in. If you have a sedan I can tell you there is no way the rear was lowered 1.4", maybe an inch.

The car is dirty in this pic but it's a good shot of the stance.
