Ordered mine today. Wife bought them for me for my b-day. Maybe the first vert on Swifts? I will let you guys know how I do. Probably be a few weeks before I have a chance to install them. 20/15 spacers as well.

I'm going to get mine installed on Monday along with new tires and minor brake upgrades.
The tires will be 275/35 & 305/30 on my Volks (+40mm & +8mm). How do I go about increasing contact patch with the bigger tires and minimize ruining the suspension geometry? In other words, what should I tell the Nissan tech when they are doing 4-wheel alignment with aftermarket springs, wheels, and tires? |

However I do not know if they have front cambers yet... Or im buggin' |
I had really negative rear camber after installing the SPC front & rear camber kit, the negative camber made the car handle flawlessly during tricky turns; I haven't done alignment yet but will probably try to keep it more negative than stock. I'll post up pics of what my camber looks like shortly.
Crown, THMotorsports (Nick) sells SPC Front camber ;) |
I just got done with my alignment(swift springs)and it was way out of wack,but I bought SPC front & rear camber arms,they make adjusting the car a hella of allot easier.
You can dial in any spec you want and since I was doing it, I didn't have to tell anyone or hear "well that's not what Nissan says" |
Doh! I didn't order the camber kits since I saw mixed responses whether one was even needed. I'm going to have my dealer do the best they can with the negative adjustments on Monday. By the time the car gets shipped to Baker in June the springs should settle pretty well.
Looking at the current 285 Hankooks (stock suspension), the inside is almost completely worn while the rest looks like it has at least 6-8 more months of tread. O_o |

Hey guys!, so yesterday I installed my front springs and when I placed the car back on the ground to start with the rear I noticed that ride height was the same as before if not higher :eek:. Any ideas as of why this could happen?
FYI, I also installed spc front camber arms and spacers. Thanks!! |

Just an FYI for any of you guys concerned with rubbing, I checked the tab that earlier posts mentioned contacting the tire and found some evidence of slight rubbing. This is not anything to do with the Swifts as anyone who is lowered will touch but here are some pictures:

To follow Birdman's picture, my rear camber sans camber arms:

^So where are the pics? Are you saying it rubs and is so what is the solution?
