Description: Swift offers up their lowering springs to give optimal performance for the stock struts while keeping the ride comfortable for daily driving. These are the most consistent springs offered in terms of spring rate linearity. They come in a specialized red coating to minimize the effect of the paint on the spring rate. The color cannot be missed.

Pros: Good Handling, Great Look
Cons: Harsh Ride

I suppose the springs are hard to compare to anything since I bought the car with these springs installed, however in my opinion there is too much vibrations making if to the driver, it does feel great in the bends but any man hole cover that sticks up a bit high or poorly don't overpass split feels like its gonna tear the car apart. However this could be from the struts and anti roll bars. Never experienced the stockers but am interested in trying it.

Pros: Lowered ride height, porpoising nonexistant, flatter cornering
Cons: Professional installation recommended = $$$

Just got them on the car today. My suspension setup is finally finished (unless I decide to upgrade the struts). The car now handles incredibly. It even makes the stock RE92's somewhat bearable. Highway ride is nice too. The car just looks mean now, but it's still understated because of the stock rims & brakes. Great addition.

Pros:
Cons:

i haven't seen a review on these so i figured i would give it a shot. i have had the swift sport springs that i purchased from tic installed now for four weeks and needless to say i am loving it. the drop is exactly what i was hoping for( about 1.25" in front and 1" in rear). the handling is a night and day difference...even with the crappy re92's. the ride is definately a little stiffer then stock, but you will get that with any after market lowering springs. i would absolutely recommend these springs to everyone that wants the aggressive stance without compromising the ride quality too much.

thanks for reading

Pros: Ride quality
Cons: Slammed look

Just bought my LGT wagon which came with the springs. Nice ride quality but the rear looks too dropped (slammed look). Personnally I don't care for the rear looking lower than the front. My 05 WRX with Prodrive springs handles similarly with a mild front slant. It was the perfect drop. Don't know if I'll change or not.

Pros:
Cons:

Installed JDM bilstein rev A struts w/ Swift Sport springs (wagon specific) on my 2005 LGT sedan in Febuary..

Stance is great, would like another -.25 in front (dropped -1.25f/-1.0r), but rear is just right..

Ride is comfortable & sporty.. Not stiff, but far from floaty like the stock setup.. At times I feel like it could be stiffer, but my back & shoulders are happy..

Swifts or Pinks are about all I would consider..

Pros: Quality.
Cons: None

Installed wagon specific springs on sedan with Tokico HTS struts and USDM Spec B top hats. Front now sits 5/8 higher than the rear. Installed GEO Metro wheel studs in rear top hats and added 3/8 "shaggy butt shims". Now ride height is perfect.

Ride is very nice (my struts are adjustable though). Drop was as advertised. I used the wagon springs to make up for stereo weight in the trunk.

Would not recommend on shock struts as the drop would probably be much more than advertised. and the dampening would be too soft.

I am very pleased with my set up. Paid only $275 delivered (not from a vendor, sorry) and for the savings over Pinks I would highly recommend them.
