H&R or Swift Springs?

twotonezed · 11-13-2010, 12:24 AM

I thought the drop on the Swift springs was 1.25" in the front and 1" in the rear. Isn't that right?

It looks like the rear drop between the Swift and H&R springs are almost identical but the H&R drops the front noticeably more. I like the balanced drop the swifts offer, the H&Rs look a little too raked for me personally.

CFZ · 11-15-2010, 12:55 PM

I went with the Swift only for the performance aspect of the spring.

370ZAttack · 11-16-2010, 02:21 PM

I like the Swift dropped better. Not to mention the greater performance.

HATED1 · 11-16-2010, 04:26 PM

please keep in mind that the tires in front are different in width when comping the drop, the wider 275/35/19 in front may affect the gap compared to that of the 245/40/19.

Thats true, but if you measure the rim to fender arch you can see the H&R's are indeed closer in the fronts than in the rear...

HATED1 · 11-16-2010, 06:52 PM

yup i agree with ya there.

ArirangZ · 11-19-2010, 01:16 AM

I hear only good things about SWIFT and it is pricey.

Spring cup mod for the rear anyone? HAHA!

HATED1 · 11-19-2010, 12:19 PM

I see that there are a lot of views in favor for swift, which isn't a bad thing, but I would like to mention that h&r's are a good spring that go well with stock shocks. Many people on here have them and love them aesthetically. The only reason many switch is because many, such as myself go lower after several months of ownership. But for the price and having the lowest available drop with a slightly stiffer spring rate goes well with the 370z.

Holliday · 11-19-2010, 11:25 PM

Plus the price difference can sway many members decisions quickly away from the swifts. Especially with our wonderful economy

I like the H&R.
