Eibach produces some of the highest quality springs in the world. They can be found everywhere from high performance street cars to full race F1 cars. Each Eibach spring application is designed and built from the ground up - starting with a full research and development phase to determine the best balance between performance and ride quality. Eibach springs are on average 2.75 pounds lighter than the competition. This reduction of unsprung mass is equivalent to removing 50 pounds from your car! All Eibach springs also include an unbeatable Million Mile Warranty.
The Eibach Pro-Kit will greatly improve the handling of your 370Z with a moderate drop that is the perfect compromise for a daily driven car. The 370Z specific Pro-Kit features a progressive spring rate and will lower the car approximately .9in in the front and .8in on the rear end. The reduced wheel gap will add a sporty performance look your 370Z and the increased spring rates will dramatically improve handling through the twisties.
If you want to improve the handling and appearance of your 2009-2015 Nissan 370Z, installing a set of Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs is a great modification from JDMuscle. Learn more about how lowering springs can enhance your Z's performance and the differences between springs and coil overs.

How Lowering Springs Improve Vehicle Performance
Lowering springs are a simple yet highly effective upgrade for most vehicles. By lowering your 370Z's ride height, springs provide several key benefits:
Improved Handling and Cornering - Lowering your center of gravity helps flatten out the body roll when cornering hard, allowing you to carve corners with more precision. The springs' stiffer rates also reduce chassis movement. Together, this equates to sharper turn-in and enhanced handling dynamics.
-
Reduced Braking Distance: Having a lower center of gravity via lower ride height shifts more weight onto the front tires under heavy braking. This improves front grip for shorter stopping distances.
-
Enhanced Acceleration: Similar to braking, lowering the center of gravity also improves front end traction during hard acceleration.
-
Aggressive Stance: Lowering springs provide the easiest way to give your Z a more aggressive, planted stance. Reducing the wheel gap simply looks great!
The Eibach Pro-Kit springs offer moderate lowering with more performance-oriented spring rates over stock. Expect approximately .9" lower in front and .8" lower in the rear - the perfect drop for a balanced aesthetic and performance upgrade. The springs are also lighter than OEM, reducing unsprung weight for improved suspension response. And they carry Eibach's legendary million-mile warranty for peace of mind.
The Difference Between Lowering Springs & Coilovers
While lowering springs provides many benefits, coilovers offer maximum suspension tuning ability. Here are the key differences:
-
Ride Height Adjustability: Coil overs allow adjustable ride height via the threaded bodies, whereas lowering springs have a fixed height. This allows you to fine tune ride height for appearance, wheel fitment, or performance.
-
Damping Adjustability: Coil-overs feature adjustable shock damping for fine-tuning the ride quality and handling balance. Springs don't affect damping.
-
Corner Balancing: Coil overs allow adjusting each corner's preload and ride height individually. This is key for dialing in perfect weight distribution and handling.
Suppose you're seeking ultimate suspension control for competitive motorsports or want to achieve very low ride heights. In that case, JDMuscle has a wide range of quality coil overs for your 370Z, like the Tein brand coilovers or Nissan 370Z coilovers. But for most Z owners looking to enhance handling and aesthetics on a budget, the Eibach Pro-Kit springs offer an excellent bang for your buck.
Installing a set of Eibach Pro-Kit Lowering Springs is an easy yet highly effective way to sharpen your 2009-2015 Nissan 370Z's handling dynamics and give it a more planted, aggressive stance. The springs offer optimized spring rates and moderate lowering to strike the perfect balance for street and light track use.
For Z owners seeking more comprehensive suspension tuning, JDMuscle also provides top-tier coilovers. Contact us today to upgrade your 370Z!
