That looks really sweet Greg... that's about where I want mine.

Yes Greg, Very sweet ride!!! You too Ice. Man I wish I had some pics of my old SE-R (97), w/ GC coilovers and AGX's, w/ 17" Konig Monsoons. It looked really good. But both of your cars looked really good guys. Nice stances
so with a 2.1" front and like a 1.7" drop with teins and having 17" with a system in the back on you car wouldn't cause tire RUB against the fenders?!?????

Why make my sentra faster when I can beat any car on my bike!!!
I would doubt it personally. I measured nearly 3.5" of clearance in the front and the spring rates are lots higher than stock so they arent going to droop or sag as much with weight like our stock setup.

mine is pretty low and i have my spare, 2 amps mounted on 1/2" MDF and a 12" sub in a box made of 3/4" and i have no rubbing.... its alot lower than 1.7" in the back i would say.
I will get some up close pics of the fender gap soon.
Hey CHI-B14SENTRA, here is a pic of my car with my old setup, 1.7" drop all around (Progress springs). I know you have a Sentra, but you can get an idea of how low the rear end will be.
Those are 17s, and although it looks low, you don't have to worry about rubbing because the wheels are so far set inwards. I have 42mm offset rims and theres lots of space between the tire and fender lip. You can probably go down to like 30mm offset without worrying about rubbing. By the way, unless you have a huge sub box and amp, and a custom show install, don't worry about your sounds weighing down the back. Just consider the suspension travel issue - well covered in the suspension forums. With the above setup I would bottom once in a while because of the soft springs (150lbs/in). Good luck.
Thanks again for the comments guys, just tryin to rep Nissan here in Hawaii!

No it will not rub the fenders!!
I have 17s and the rear dropped about an inch more.
I had an engine hoist in the trunk which should even out for your system,and it did not rub!!
I was looking to do my suspension at the end of the summer, would be interested if there is a GB then. One question though. When the shocks wear out (which they eventually will), can you get replacements for just the shock portion, or do you replace the entire kit? I putzed around Tein's site, and didn't see anything about replacing/rebuilding the shocks. Also, for daily (aggressive) driving and maybe an occasional autocross, what kind of mileage would the shocks be good for?
