Swift springs review!!!!!

Well drats....I thought we finally had a tried and true response for you guys on the neccessity of kits or not.

I had to install the toe bolt to get my back into spec. With the added toe bolt, now it gives me more adjustability. So go figure, back to square one. I cannot believe all cars are off spec that much after installing the springs. Current tire wear might contribute to the varied alignments we have seen.

Perhaps- I was aligned on stock tires. I put on some 305's this week and will be aligned with them next. It'll be interesting to see what the specs look like before/after.

I have a question about tire size and alignment....
My car came with the 18" rims and tires(225/50-18 and 245/45-18) now I have 19" rims with 245/40-19 and 285/35-19 which is the same size as the 370 Nismo; I take my car to NTB to do the alignment, when NTB does the alignment they do it according to the tire size, so which tire size should I do the alignment under the 18" or the 19" ?
Sorry if it is a stupid question but I'm new at this.
Thanks.
