A set of eBay plates with a different bearing would probably be better than Tein or Cusco plates for much less money. Hell, if the OP doesn't buy them, there's a pretty good chance I will.
So people can see what Def is talking about :
The snout on the bottom is completely unnecessary and wastes travel. The front of the car would drop an inch if I got plates without the stupid snouts on them. |
That's a very good point, most Nissan's are limited in shock travel anyways so plates like Teins will only amplify the problem
. Thanks guys I appreciate all the good arguments on this thread. If I do have to replace the bearings a year from now its no big deal, good bearings don't cost that much nor are they hard to replace.
