Any cons of lowering springs?
 

I was told if i swapped out for lowering springs, i would need new struts soon since it will wear them faster?
I always thought getting springs would mean an alignment after the new springs settle and i can just go about my business. Is there something im missing?

You'll need camber arms and toe bolts if you lower the car.

Nismo struts are fine, drop it on Swifts, get an alignment and be done. Depending on your rear tire size (305s) you may need to get camber arms and toe bolts.

Edit: You beat me to the punch!

Camber arms and toe bolts even if i keep my stock tire size?

And i was going to get swifts

If you lower the car, you will need camber arms and toe bolts to get the alignment back into spec.

i have the 2014 sport Z, has about 4k miles on it. so basically new struts and shocks. i already bought the following
spl rear titanium camber links
spl eccentric lockout kit
spl rear toe bolts.
b2 auto design titanium wheel spacers 20mm front / 25mm rear hub centric, bolt ons
and my swift spec r springs coming in saturday. so by next week everything my spacers and springs are getting installed
waiting a week for it to settle in then getting alignment + spl suspension put in.

depends on the springs you get. swifts will probably run fine with your stock dampers.

and alignment is required. think of it as part of the installation process.

I would get it done but if i need camber arms and toe bolts i probably wont get it done

you can run without camber arms, but it will eat your rear tires.

Alignment is always required.

You're don't necessary needed the arms to lower your car But they will save more money in the long run because Z tires are expensive. Camber arms(spl) and toe bolts ~$300. A new set of rear tires $500-700.

Thats a good point. Guess its time to check out some diy on how to do them

I read that spl is the brand to go but their front camber arms are $500 more compared to spc??

Those tires are wearing fine !!

Turn faster, that'll fix your wear issue :rofl2:

They are a much better product, but many people use the SPC with no problems.
