What shocks to get !

[Jayx53]

Hey guys ! so i wasn't really thinking and thought i could get springs only to lower my car but that not the case . I'm wondering what shocks are compatible with the H&R Sport Springs kit and on a altima ac 2010

Those springs should be compatible with your stock suspension. If you want aftermarket shocks, look into KYB they make shocks for the altima coupe.

thanks again ! @sanosuke ! you've been a great help ! would it be possible you could direct me to a site that i can buy them for a good price. I know the springs are compatible with my stock ones but people keep saying i should get shocks with it..

Honestly I've had a lot of A/C friends that ran aftermarket springs with stock shock/struts and the car ran fine. I even had that combo for a while when I first started modding. It's really up to you if you want to spend the extra cash for aftermarket shocks/struts. But just so you know, BOTH combos will work.

Here's links to the parts other members bought: (I can't really recommend these because I never bought it but they got good reviews)

I recently ordered them directly from KYB for around $55 including the shock mount kit. Advance Auto has lots of specials and online discounts that can get them to the same price.

Keep in the mind the KYB dampers are only OE replacements, and not truly designed to be mated to lowering springs. Nonetheless, test out the combo and report back how they're working for you.

Most aftermarket lowering springs will work with stock suspensions. However you can shorten the life of your stock shocks/struts by lowering them. If your suspension is already worn, you will have an even bumpier ride when you lower and cut the travel distance of the suspension.
