I daily drive my car and the car rides much smoother than the factory Nismo springs. It gives me the look I was after and are very practical for daily driving.. Attachment 82256

Sorry if I missed it in this thread or another, but is anyone running GT-S springs with spacers? I'm considering GT-S springs with 20mm in the front and 25mm in the rear and wanted to make sure there won't be clearance issues with the stock sport wheels and tires.

Thanks

If these are at the same price point, I might try them. Wonder how they will be with 20'' tires.. I don't want any negative camber, but if its just put on springs.. let them set for a week, then get an alignment, that is much less stressful.

sorry to bring up this old thread. I am going to install GT-s springs as well and wanted to know if we need to get lower control arms to bring the camber back into spec?

any help is appreciated.

I think you'd be okay... but I'd pick up something like These SPL rear camber links just to be safe. And at $270 they will save you money on tires in the long run.

Did any of you have to put camber arms on or anything or did you guys straight up put them on and leave it that way? I'm thinking about getting them.

So you would get rear camber arms, but not any front ones? Is there a science behind this or what? Sorry for the question, it might be common sense, but I don't know a whole lot about suspension, etc.

You won't have issues with these springs and spacers. I ran Swifts but I wanted more of a drop so I switched to Ark GT-S springs. Now my car is too low for my taste so I'm switching to coilovers.
