Um yeah! They have 10K+ spring rates. The highest from ANY springs, even the Nismo and S-tune.

I agree, my dropped settled some more also. And the cornering definitely improved. The car feels less sloppy, and the body roll was minimized. I think these paired with some sways would be perfect.

That is awesome, thanks for the information! I am torn right now; should I do a brake revamp (pads/fluid) or should I go for Swift springs? Ah!

Depends when your budget replenishes Christian. I think the Swift Springs will have a 6-8 week wait before they are back in stock from what I heard. If you can squeeze in the brake-work beforehand, go for it!

I ordered a set last night and called to check after reading this, they had 2 in stock, so they have 1 set left now for anyone interested.
