those both look very nice. I am confused on what and where the coupe springs would go to have a even drop front and rear . meaning would I put a coupe spring from a 03-06 coupe front spring in the front to be lower with the back or put a coupe rear spring in the rear to be even with the front. thanks

Coupe Springs in the Rear

The Coupe Springs give you roughly a .5 inch drop and the 350Z Springs give you a 1 inch drop.

So...to make it look "even" then common thing to do is 350z Springs in the front and the Coupe Springs in the back. So that drops the front 1 inch and the rear .5 inch.

Hope that helps...

does it matter what year coupe springs they are and if its sport suspension or not . just so all the spring rates match . Because I have a set of unrevised springs , full sports suspension off a 05-06 sedan and the springs . So I just want a even drop and lose my ride quality. thanks for any help

If you have the non sport coupe spring the sedan sport shocks will work. If you have the sport coupe springs you need to update the rear shocks.

The stock 18" Sport look SO small and look like 17" rims at best. I like the style but on our cars we have to go at least 19".

BTW, I'm not biased as I currently have the stock 18" Sport Sedan Wheels pictured above...

Sorry to thread jack, but I am looking for new tires for stock 18 rims. Stock is 235/45/18. Would 245/45/18 or 245/40/18 be good alternatives, or would they be too wide for a 7.5 inch rim? Once again, sorry for thread jack.
