Small dilemma...Swift Springs/Tein S-Tech's

you dont live in the snowbelt state that's probably why. the paint wouldnt last one salty snow season on my dd. that was with tein and tanabe. no such issue on swifts and eibachs.

I had Tein S-Techs on my S2000 before I put the Swift Spec-R's on my 370Z. Shortly thereafter I got a set of the Swifts for the S2000. On the S2000 the ride was bouncy and the drop was uneven with the Teins. Now with the Swifts they are comfy and sporty. The drop was not as much, but no big deal to me.

BS Mine still look awesome, she is fixing to hit her second winter with me. Has anyone actually done back to back testing.
