Key Features

Street Series Lowering Design

Megan Racing engineered these springs as part of their Street Series lineup, balancing ride comfort with improved performance.

Benefits include:

• Improved appearance
• Reduced wheel gap
• Better cornering stability
• Enhanced steering response
• Daily-driver comfort

Unlike track-focused springs, Street Series springs are designed to remain comfortable during regular commuting.

Lowering Amount

The MR-LS-NA07L4 kit provides:

Front Drop

• Approximately 0.83 inches

Rear Drop

• Approximately 0.35 inches

This conservative drop improves aesthetics without creating significant clearance concerns.

Many owners prefer a mild drop because it:

• Preserves ride quality
• Maintains suspension geometry
• Reduces scraping issues
• Allows use of factory-size tires

The result is a cleaner stance that looks factory-correct rather than excessively lowered.

The high tensile strength and phosphate powder coating delivers outstanding spring rates which can be extremely durable and withstand premature sagging.

SAE 9254 Cold-Wound Steel Construction

The springs are manufactured using SAE 9254 cold-wound steel.

This premium spring material offers:

• Excellent tensile strength
• Long-term durability
• Resistance to sagging
• Consistent spring rates

Cold-wound manufacturing helps maintain spring integrity while providing reliable performance over years of use.

The result is a spring that specifically offers race-car handling, yet maintains smooth and comfortable ride characteristics. Carefully matched springs rates provide exceptional handling, response, keep an eye on and balance.

Improved Handling Characteristics

One of the biggest advantages of lowering springs is improved chassis control.

The Megan Racing springs help:

Reduce Body Roll

Lower ride height decreases weight transfer during cornering.

Improve Steering Response

The vehicle feels more connected to the road during aggressive driving.

Increase Stability

A lower center of gravity contributes to improved confidence during lane changes and high-speed cruising.

Enhance Cornering Performance

The suspension remains more composed when entering and exiting turns.

While the Altima was never designed as a dedicated sports car, suspension upgrades can significantly improve driver engagement.

These springs offer a generous drop to your car at the same time as remaining very street-in a position by having enough clearance to keep away from bottoming-out; and the lowered center of gravity improves performance and increases stability, in addition to enhancing the appearance of the vehicle. (Note: Spring rates and drop amount vary by different vehicle application and chassis load.)

Compatibility with Factory Shocks

A major advantage of the MR-LS-NA07L4 kit is compatibility with factory-style shocks and struts.

Owners can:

• Retain OEM shocks if they are in good condition
• Upgrade to aftermarket performance shocks
• Install the springs without purchasing a full coilover kit

This makes the springs a cost-effective entry point into suspension modification.

Ride Quality Expectations

Because the drop is relatively mild, ride quality remains comfortable for everyday use.

Drivers can generally expect:

• Slightly firmer ride
• Improved road feel
• Reduced body movement
• Better overall chassis control

Unlike aggressive lowering setups, these springs maintain much of the comfort that makes the Altima an excellent daily driver.

Why Lower a Nissan Altima?

Many enthusiasts overlook the Altima as a modification platform, but suspension upgrades can dramatically improve its appearance.

Benefits include:

Better Appearance

The reduced wheel gap creates a more refined and sporty look.

Improved Wheel Fitment

Lowering helps aftermarket wheels sit more naturally within the wheel wells.

Enhanced Driving Experience

The vehicle feels more responsive and balanced.

Affordable Upgrade

Lowering springs remain one of the most budget-friendly suspension modifications available.

Installation Considerations

Before installing lowering springs, inspect:

• Front struts
• Rear shocks
• Sway bar end links
• Control arm bushings
• Ball joints

Replacing worn suspension components during installation can maximize performance and ride quality.

Following installation:

• Perform a professional alignment
• Verify tire clearance
• Re-torque suspension hardware

Proper alignment is essential to prevent premature tire wear.

Lowering Springs vs Coilovers

Many Altima owners compare lowering springs and coilovers before upgrading.

Lowering Springs

Pros:

• Affordable
• Reliable
• Comfortable
• Easy maintenance

Cons:

• Fixed ride height
• Limited adjustability

Coilovers

Pros:

• Adjustable ride height
• Greater tuning potential
• More aggressive setups possible

Cons:

• Higher cost
• Increased maintenance
• Firmer ride quality

For most daily-driven Altimas, lowering springs offer the best balance between cost, comfort, and performance.

Final Thoughts

The Megan Racing MR-LS-NA07L4 Street Series Lowering Springs provide a practical suspension upgrade for 2007-2013 Nissan Altima Sedan and Coupe models. With a modest front and rear drop, durable SAE 9254 steel construction, and compatibility with factory or aftermarket shocks, these springs offer an excellent balance of appearance, comfort, and handling.
