Default Swift Spec R!

I have installed the Swift Spec R springs.
I drive an 05 AP2
They drop the vehicle
1.25 inch all around and the spring rates are
7.5kg in the front
7kg in the rear.
Linear springs

Overall impression is that they are extremely comfortable daily driven but when they are pushed they have a coilover feel with them. There is no body roll.

I will be taking the car to Willow in the next coming weeks. So stay tuned for that.

Here is a picture of them. This is right after install, so the springs have already settled more.

I have to assume you're on OEM dampers?

Installed mine yesterday. Honestly they might be a little too low for my taste, and I got a bit of rubbing at full compression. Going to drive them for a week or so before passing final judgement, though.

The shocks are CR shocks and in the first shot the springs are CR springs. I'll try to get a better shot today that isn't covered with shadows.

Here are the pics:
