Swift springs review!!!!!

I think you can get the front back to spec, but to get the rear back to spec you'll need a camber kit.

I just bought the rear camber kit including the toe bolts to accompany the Swift springs. I hope the front doesn't get to far out of spec. I want a little bit more negative camber in the front for handling but not so much it will eat the tires much faster.

Well, I got my car aligned today and it completely fixed the bazaar handling issues I was experiencing after the install last week. The tech eliminated the excess camber as requested. The car handles great now. The ride is stiff and stable. My passenger side is slightly higher than the driver side. As for the Konis...I have them on the softest setting and plan on keeping it that way for this daily driven Z.
