Default These look great
I have two questions:
1. do you guys have any problems scraping on speed bumps?
2. does this give the 370z a similar ride to the old 350z?

thanks

1. I scraped on some speed bumps BEFORE the Swifts! So you have to be careful on any bump/pothole. No different than any other lowered car.

2. Never drove a 350, but I cannot imagine the 350 had a setup as good as a 370 with Swifts....

For those that have had the Swifts on for a good bit of time, how much wear and tear do they put on the stock shocks? On Swifts website, they said they recommend using high performance shocks, but its not required. Appreciate the feedback fellas!

Stock shocks will work just fine. Consider for replacemet the 2013 euro shocks.

Yep, just learn to go over them at an angle and will be fine.
Apples to oranges, cannot compare.
