Tanabe Springs

Does anyone have tanabe springs on their coupe? I have a chance to get some cheap for my coupe they will lower it 1.5. I think they are the DF (dress-up form) springs. I need to know if there is a major difference from the stock ride and if there r rubbing issues I have 19's on my coupe. Thanks

Re: Tanabe Springs

Spring rate wise, they are pretty much the same as stock, just a little different

Tanabe Sustec DF210 Springs 03-UP INFINITI G35 COUPE
Manufacturer Part #: TDF073 Drop:F/1.5" R/1.5"
Spring rates 308/353
Oem spring rates 314/342

When you have two springs that are close in spring rate, but on is a shorter spring, the shorter spring will tend to get stiffer when you start to compress it faster. The springs are progressive, so that will help the ride quality. I suspect they will feel a bit firmer.
