Swift springs review!!!!!

cheshirecat · 05-04-2011, 09:58 AM

Have my alignment scheduled for Friday morning. My rear suspension has been pretty noisy since my install, but it's not because of the springs- the rear toe is off quite a bit. I installed a rear spring bucket brace at the same time, so one of the spring buckets likes to move around due to the terrible toe alignment whenever I start or stop the car from moving.

Even though my alignment at the moment sucks, the springs are great. I wouldn't call the drop conservative or aggressive. It really is right there in the middle. The performance of the spring is, as someone else said, 100% better than stock. Not harsh, but EXTREMELY planted in the corners.

Honestly, this is how the Z should have been from the factory. The ride is dramatically improved in every way.

The only drawback I could see for people is if they want a lower drop. In that case, just go with some coilovers so you can dial in whatever setting you want.
