Looks much much better!

How did it change the handling at the limits on poor roads?

My concern is that on lowered cars, you usually give up compliance/suspension travel, resulting in excessive under or over-steer depending at the limits if the suspension becomes unsettled (hit gravel/pebbles/expansion joints mid corner).

Stock, for me atleast, the car is predictable and manageable at the limits on public roads.... but I'm not in love with the ride height either.

Experts and OP please chime in!

Would this setup not compromise performance in any way?

Would it be an improvement not just looks wise, but performance wise vs. stock?

Much happier since installing Swifts a couple of weekends ago. Z rides much, much better and handles great. Takes bumps of all sizes very well. No complaints whatsoever!

yup, improved handling and performance. with spl rear camber arms and toe bolts + wheel alignment, car felt even tighter, i was going in and out of lanes with no problem and high speed conering improved. height is perfect. i have motordyne and that ever scrapes. nothing scrapes besides the plastic chin thingy rarely. I'm happy over roll. swifts are perfect.
