Which lowering springs to go with?
What's up guys. New to my350z.com. I'm wanting to lower my Z, but i'm not too sure which springs to go with. I have stock 18's on them, and was thinking about going with the SPRINT springs. It'll lower it 1.75 in the front and back. Does anybody have any experience with these? ride quality, stance, rubbing? Or does anybody know if i should go with any other springs? This is Z is an everyday driver.

Search for "350z wiki tech" in google.com
That site will help guide you in the right direction as far as what you want to do. Read into camber kits, lowering springs, coilver kits, strut bars, sway bars for lowered suspension vehicles.
TEIN Flex kit is my next mod for various lowering adjustments for those different conditions.

Huh. Seems like everyone has a different experience on the S-Techs.
I love em. Had considered tanabe gf210s, but ended up with the Teins.
Happiest moment with my car early on was driving off with them installed.
Car felt much better at speed, on highway. Traction and turn-in were
considerably improved. Took two weeks to "settle" and my ride height
is low. Have had more than one person ask me which coil-overs I have.
I have also had zero camber issues. My tires wear perfectly edge to edge.
I have no toe/camber kit installed, and I am just fine. I am however on
19x9.5/19x10.5 meister S13ps. Get the Teins, be happy.

I've no experience with Sprint Springs, but 1.75" is a pretty deep drop for our cars. It'll require more aftermarket alignment parts to get back in OEM specs--if you care about that. Personally, I wouldn't go that low w/o a complete coilover and alignment set up. My 0.2.
