Swifts + Koni shocks = great combo as advertised by people on this forum.

I've had the rears and fronts adjusted and the cars running great.

I'm sure there's load of better suspension adjustments that can be done but this satisfies me plenty.

Excellent. I had a feeling you'd be digging this.

I know factory the Swifts are 1.25" F & 1.0" R and the H&R's are 1.3" F & 1.0" R....But what are the final settled heights? I'm sure i've just over looked the answer in the past 100 pages i've browsed through.

I'm at 3 weeks with these installed, feels better and better each time I drive it. I still have some nice finger gap and i don't think it's gotten lower. Do I need a an alignment , is it required?

You should always check alignment after suspension work.
