Hey guys, first off I wanna say happy new year to all my fellow nico members! I am a owner of a 97 Maxima GLE and I'm looking to a little work to my suspension, nothing to crazy of course... I'm not looking for any to low. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks!

IMO tien s.tech springs are awesome, I however am running oem replacement struts. Most with S.techs run kyb agx or tokico blue's. heres what mine looks like though. If you keep your OEM struts(if they are good) you will save about $450on 19's(new camera) running 225/35/19on 18's(old camera), running 245/45/18

Tokico Illumina Kit. 1.5" drop. Superior performance. Roughly $700-800 for complete kit, struts and springs.

since he did say nothing too crazy, I would say either eibach springs or H&R springs. Also, since you possibly have OEM struts you will have to replace them because your OEM struts cannot take performance springs at all. You will end up blowing your struts right out. I would say just go ahead and get either kind of tokico struts ( HP, illuminas, or blues) . I recomend illuminas because they are adjustable. Do some reaserch and find the right springs that you will feel good with. I, myself have illuminas with H&R springs.
