Anyone down with Tanabe NF210

So long story short, anyone on here have any experience with Tanabe nf210 lowering springs? Ride quality, performance, quality of product, yada yada ......... I've done lots of research and dont wanna go too low nowadays. I know coilovers may be the best option but I'm looking to pair a set of lowering springs with my 2003 CL type S. Currently running eibach struts all the way around with eibach sway bars and upgraded most stock suspension parts to beefier units. NF210???? Not looking to go lower than 2 inch drop.

The NF210 springs drop 1.0 inch front and 0.5 inches rear.

I am currently running the Tein H-Tech springs with 1.2 inch drop all around. I'm happy with my springs, not too low but looks great and comfortable. Just FYI.

Are you a 6speed? I had those on my old CL6 and the drop was a reverse rake.

no, unfortunately auto. transmission. Reading alot of these threads makes me really wary about modding my CL. The car is rust free, clean in and out. Runs strong as an ox......... Going to put in my eibachs this weekend though. No coil springs....just rear sway bar and dampers.

gnuts or aznboi2424 did either of you have to swap out your coil spring insulators for new units when revamping your suspension? The tops of course....... I have the eibach pro dampers and it looks like it came with the strut mounting kit. Not knowing this, I went and bought a KYB strut mounting kit also..... DUMB, I know. Hopefully, I can return the KYB kits.

when I did my tanabe's, I used my stock shocks. I believe I got new oem upper mounts but that's it.

I don't personally have any experience with the NF210's, but Tanabe in general makes quality products.

All I did was swap the springs when I did mine. I didn't put any new rubber parts in. I will the next time I get my shocks changed out.
