they were designed with 2003-2004 struts in mind. If you search, you'll see a ton of reviews from '03-'04. Most will be for the non ti, but same specs, same height drop. RSR used to be widely distributed in the US, now, not so much

I was thinking about trying to find some RSR springs because after doing some research, it looked like they were the closest to the 06+ spring rates. Am I wrong in thinking that they should perform about the same as stock on my car?

If so, what springs were designed to work with 06+ in mind and what would you recommend?

Cobb or Tein S Tech are my recommendations for the 06 - modest drops (nice, but not over the top), and both mate very, very well to the revised struts

I was thinking about the RSR springs also. the 04+ rates are 314 front and 427 rear. so the RSR spring rates are very close, 345 front and 417 rear. Both sets of springs are linear. Shocks are valved for spring rates, springs are not made for shocks. I am not an expert but the RSRs should be fine for the new Z.

Of cousre I would like to hear some comments from people with the springs.

Personally I am looking for a drop of about 3/4 inch- 1 inch with linear springs. And these seem to be the closest out there.
