Swift springs review!!!!!

Jordo!

I actually attempted to find a shop with a shock dyno in my area so that I'd have a very clear idea what effect changing the setting would have -- and it was a failure (although they seemed to think after playing with each shock that the dial only adjusted rebound rather than compression or both).

The two shops in my area that can do it are set up specifically for Penskes, and had no way to mount the Koni to their dyno

Luckily I know of a very good shop in my area that preps track cars routinely, and has experience with Konis, so I do not know the exact settings, but they told me they were set to "medium firm" (which is kind of meaningless)...

When I go back for an alignment tweak in early December (when I have time and after the springs have completely finished settling), I'll see if I can get more precise info to share.

Sounds good bud. My swifts settled already.

Hi guys,
I just installed my Swift 3 days ago and I havent had my alignment done yet. I will do it tmr. However, My steering wheel were shaking pretty bad when I drove back home these days. Is it a normal thing that happen when We just installed our Spring or its because of somehting else. My steering wheel was fine after installing the Swift plus the front spacers. I think its either the Spacers or the Spring. I am just worried but will get alignment done by tmr. Hope u guys can help! Thanks

Jordo!

It could also be the alignment. Did you include rear camber arms? If it feels really squirrelly, your toe settings may be off.

Definitely spacers, even some of our customers with the higher quality H&R spacers have this problem when using them on the front!

is this a problem with all spacers even with a proper alignment?

Never go cheap on wheel spacers! I would only buy H&R

I'm still scared to get these springs, I feel like I will ruin my f1 exhaust and I already scrape that black under spoiler guard.

I just don't want the saggy spring too low look

Good, you wont get this with the Swifts

Swifts are about the best bang for your buck mod you can do to the 370. They increase the handling a ton and give it a much needed drop. Get $600 bucks together, buy some Swifts, a set of sway bars and itll handle 7834989 times better.

thanks, ya i already got the PSS that helped my handling tremendously thanks the mronzedge praise. Swift springs are for sure next. Some questions`

-will i be ok with 20mm spacers all around?
-Also i will need an alignment for sure right?
-What about camber toe stuff! If i dont really care about tire wear does it matter or does it help your handling.

edub370

spacer size will depend on what wheels u are running. if factory, then 20's all around should be ok. swift springs definately not give u a crappy saggy spring look. in orger to not scrape u will jsut have to be aware of potholes, and entrances. take angles, and go slow.

u will deifnately need an alignment. with swifts the front camber can remain just in spec. while the rear will be JUST outside of factory spec. not enough to make a big difference on tire wear


here's a pic of the stance of my car with jsut swifts.



as u can see, its not like they "slam" your car or anything. just give you a nice mild drop to take out some wheel gap.

also, as i'm sure many can atest too, your car will be much less twitchy under mid corner bumps with these springs.
