I currently have the stock Bridgestone tires on the car now, so I will indeed get before and after shots to post. I am also planning to lower the car on Swift springs, and later add spacers. I'll hopefully have this done within the next week or two... so pictures will be posted soon!
Just added the S04 in the same sizing to my car, pretty happy with them compared to OEM its a night and day difference.

Hey thanks for the heads up, I'm looking to get my tires and ride for about a week. Then I'll go ahead install the Swifts, and get an allignment. I had already planned on getting the rear camber arms, but now I'll just go ahead and order a pair. Do you reccommend a specific set? And I am for sure gonna wait on the spacers until everything has settled.

Good to know you are enjoying them, do you have any recent pics of your setup?

I got the SPL Titanium Rear Camber links. They seem really solid and well made.

I want to see some "Meaty Tires" here. Some like 295+ on the front and 325+ on the rear. Would love to see 315's on the front and 355's on the rear.

Awesome thanks for that info, I'll do some searching on here and see what everyone else is running, and what they recommend. Pictures to come soon !
