Just purchased swifts as well. Now I need to decide on doing the front camber arms(which are crazy expensive) with the rears.

Pretty sure I am going to go with SPC for the rear with toe bolts to get it close back into factory specs.

Any other recommendations?

Decide on the front after a good break in and tell us your specs. You might be within stock. If not you might be at a good spot for a great handling car you like.

Swifts won't be crazy out of spec for toe I don't think. The factory toe bolts at 1 degree might be enough for you.

I recently bought swift springs, judging by what I'm hearing from you guys I have to get this and this in order to put my wheel setup to normal? I don't want to wear my out tires fast, but I definitely do want to lower my car.

You should only need rear camber arms to save your rear tires. The fronts just roll and won't wear out. No need spending that extra money on front camber and toe unless u are tracking your car in time trials and need to make adjustments. If that's the case u should think coilovers.

Dont Worry , You Will be able to get Camber and Toe back within spec with OEM arms bolts. TRUST ME.

Also, Toe Really eats your tires more than camber will.

Swifts and SPL arms have arrived. Will be installing them next week with H&R 20/20. First mods while waiting on my F I Cbe and Hfc's to arrive.

Gotcha, I was getting a little worried about the tires for a second there. So after installing the springs, should I just wait about a few weeks and then get a re-alignment?

Since swift springs rarely sag, all you have to wait for is the springs to bed into the rubber!

Would y'all recommend ordering both the rear camber kit and toe bolt then?
I'm thinking or ordering:
Swift springs
SPL rear Camber kit
SPC Toe Bolt
Some brand of 20mm spacers??

Sound about right?
