Swift springs review!!!!!

bigdog1250

Got my alignment done this weekend and it resulted in Front Camber of -1.7 & -1.6 (maxed out), and Rear of -2.6 and -2.5. I was super tired/hungover when I picked up the car so I didn't really pay attention to the printout and just drove home. So I called the shop today after realizing there was too much camber out back and they said there was still room to work with on the rear, so I will hopefully have them get me closer to -2.1 on the back 2 wheels.

Pics to come.

In for a printout sheet from the alignment rack. That is the Fr / Rr combo setup I would be looking at, probably more in the -1.9 to -2.0 for the rears with that front setup. - 0.3 difference between Fr and Rr with greater camber up front than in the rear.

After seeing two sets of alignment numbers on two different cars without any camber kits, I am disappointed to come to the conclusion that these springs with sport rims and stock tire sizes that the camber WILL NOT be in OEM spec. I hope someone proves me wrong, time will tell with more alignment postings. Keep in mind some may not care or want to be in SPEC, meh... I want to try and get the most out of my very expensive new RE-11's I am about to have mounted this Sat before my alignment.

Mike, your specs look very good, considering you are not running any camber kits.

Looking to get these springs, anybody know were they are readily available?
Thanks.

KamiSpeed, ARK, Amplified... shop around and get a good price. Each shipment tends to get bought out very quickly so you may have to place an order and wait a few weeks.

No problem, the table of contents is buried and once you find it, you may want to re-label the file to something like: QUICK_REFERENCE_INDEX_TOC

It makes it alot easier when you have to refer to it in 6 months.

Yes, please do post pics.

^ Good to know. I am pleased with the performance I get by staying within a -0.3 difference between Fr -1.3 & Rr -1.0. This setup has provided performance and reasonable tire life at 26k miles. I may try a new setup this time around, more on the performance side, any suggestions?

ZForce

I very rarely ever post pics. So here are some initial pics, springs had only been on for 1 day with 50 miles on them.

My setup as follows: Sport rims rolling on stock size tires Fr 245/40/19 & Rr 275/35/19 with wheel spacers @ 20mm Fr & 25mm Rr on Swift springs.

Unsettled springs at 26.75" Fr & 27.00" Rr (measured from ground to fender).

Looks good My drop seems even in the front but the passenger side rear is almost half an inch higher than the driver side. Not sure what could cause that? Anyone else have this issue? I think someone earlier in the thread had the whole passenger side slightly higher but seems to have settled for them. I've had the springs 2 weeks with over 600 miles driven so should be settled already...

Looks Great! I have coilovers and the same spacers. I am way to dropped I suppose I'm sitting at 25 13/16 front and 26 6/10 in the rear. My front's rub on the plastic fender knob. Do you experience any of this rubbing with spacers? If not I'm raising this car to this height.

No rubbing at all and I have been checking the plastic fender knob every morning to see if there is any abrasion and none found. I even hit a large pot hole yesterday and did not hear or see any rubbing. 26.75" in the fronts, should do it for the height.

My passenger side is also slightly higher, but not by half an inch. We are honored to view your rare photogasm Zforce! Looks awesome, I am strongly considering moving up to 25mm spacers in the rear.
