so i made up my mind and I'm gonna go with swift springs :excited:
just a quick quick question though. is there different types? because i think i found some that are "spec-R" "sport match" and the "assist and helper springs" which do you have?? sorry I'm new to swift springs :(

You want Swift Spec R. I ordered from Kamispeed and highly suggest them. Ive had nothing but good experiences with them:tup: Here is a link.

+ 1 for HR's. Perfect stance with my hankook evo-v12's ,275 up front and 295 in rear on 19s. Slight scrape once and a while but no rubbing.

You will need an alignment. Some people can get it back to the stock settings, some cant. I came close to stock but not quite. I believe Im at about 1.6front and 2.2 rear. A little extra camber never hurt anybody:tup:

Too much. Slammed on adjustable coilovers. Sure it looks great but that isnt very functional. In the end its up to you, bro. Are you looking for performance or looks?? IMO, it dont look good if it cant perform!

What about ARK GT-F springs? They might be a little lower then swifts with about the same spring rate.
