Torn between Eibach or Swift
Hello,
I have been doing a lot of searches and re-reading old posts about which springs to get. I am literally torn right down the middle between going 50% Eibach and 50% Swift.
Both manufacturer websites claim to increase handling while maintaining stock ride quality.
Both drop 1" in the rear and Swift is .7" vs 1" in front for Eibachs.
Anyone have pics on OEM wheels for 2004 GPW?

Why is Swift even being compared to Eibach?
If you want to wait a little longer their coming out with their Spec R.
I was told they are 1.25 drop all the way around.
7.5kg/mm Front
7kg/mm rear.
Swift FTW no comparison.

I have eibachs on my 05. there is no noticeable VISUAL drop. imo, the drop is perfect enough where it looks "right". so right that people don't even know that there is a drop unless you park next to a stock s2000. i guess that's the way the s2000 should have come out of the factory stock.
i have no experience with swift springs, but the eibach's 1" drop maintain stock ride quality, and the drop is practical enough for most speed bumps and pot holes.
i've tracked witht he eibach and they performed well. my instructor had a stock '05, and he said he liked the way the eibachs handled the car.
i've also had eibach pro kits on my previous car. practically the same good qualities in that too.
+1 for eibach for me.
