A tuner shop in my city is having its final closing down sale, me and my buddy was there this afternoon, see what I found for cheap. This brand new set of S tech springs is originally $100 closing out price but I talked them down to $80...I was leaning towards the eibach in terms of lowering...but who can resist for that price...haha
Nice find! Now you can install these or sell them & put the profit toward the Eibach depending on how low you want to go!

That is cheap, but since the box looks opened, wonder if they were used. Did they have more than one set?
Ya....I open the box and take the springs out for pictures. They are brand new with wrapping on them, stickers and warranty and instructions are all in the plastic bag. Nope...that's the last set. I think they have another set for the Lexus IS300
Hey man! Got a couple of questions for you! Did u cut the bump stop on the strut, coz it is on the manual for the 9th gen! Another question is how much clearance you have between your front and rear wheels and the fenders, and front and rear bumper! I know the info I can find them in the lowering springs thread, but there are too many pages to read haha! The only thing worries me is winter driving, I lived in Edmonton, we got really shitty winter and snow falls! Did you notice a real gain in your handling with the s tech?

I didn't cut the bump stops because the 10th gen is heavier giving us a lower drop than 9th gen and I didn't want the car to bounce any lower than it does now. I'm really careful on bumps etc so I don't worry about that.
I can take the measurements again if you want me to, just gotta take the time to do it. The reason I got the S-techs was because it's the lowest drop without goign into coilovers and I bought these keeping winter in mind. Toronto winters aren't as bad as Edmonton but they're still harsh and I don't think I'll have any issues as I've driven my slammed Maxima through the winter in the past with no issues.
As for handling, the only time I push my car on turns is getting on the highway ramps. In local streets even if my lights green I slow down a lot to be careful before I turn. the two main reasons I lowered my car was to make it look good and to force myself to drive slower/more careful.
