Anybody here using Sprint or CM(Canuck motorsports) lowering springs? i know there's a couple members using sprint,i was just wondering if you had sagging issues in the back? i did a search and didn't really find much just 3 topics.
As for CM i've googled reviews and read alot from other forums,like mazda and such. i've found a few members saying they sagged after a year in the back end,but nobody else has confirmed it. they offer a limited lifetime warrenty with a no sag garuntee,so i'm not really sure. i've also read that they've got a new redesigned spring to solve that problem.
i've read plently of good and i've read some bad.They're also made in canada and regardless of where you live won't get hit with a boarder tax.
just curious if anybody with these or sprints could chime in.pics would be good too,before and after drop.
i know eibachs are a better spring but a bit more then i want to pay when i still have to buy dampers.

Really...no answers?

Hey, I'm using the CM springs on my 2000. Couldn't tell you about sag or not yet, they've only been in for a couple months. I went 1.6 inches so the drop is noticeable but can still drive it in the winter. One of the techs at my dealership (Nissan) put them on his maxima as well and hasn't had any issues.

and what struts did you use?

I've got 17's for the summer. And I've just got the stock struts in still.
Here's a couple pictures.

The ride isn't too bad...would probably be better if I had newer struts to go with them. With the 17's though I feel almost everything regardless of suspension.

Awesome thanks a lot man I guess I'll be ordering those and some kybs for the spring. I'll have to contact them and get a price. Maybe if there's any interest I could look into a group buy price.
