Default Thinking of getting Swift Spec-Rs

I have been looking for a good spring that wont take away from handling of the car noir make it ride like sh!t. I think these are going to be the choice but would like some input from people that have them. These will be going on AP2 shocks.

Also if you have a pic of your car with them please post.

Thanks for your help

sweet thanks

I did a search but that dam search engine doesn't help the cause.

Do you still like them? I saw you put on spacers. I just worried due to having bad roads around me and having a front lip

I like how they feel, and how the car looks and handles, but I don't like having to worry about scraping on dips, and getting in and out of the car can be felt in my knees (I'm "vintage" age now). So I think I'm going to sell my current setup and go with a coilover set that I can set to just a slight drop, say 1/2".

I am wanting to hear more reviews as well. Just picked up a CR last night, and would like more of a drop. Not wanting to do coilovers as I want to track the car close to stock for awhile. My previous S2000 had a set of Tein RS coilovers on it, so I want to get some comparisons and evalute the CR shocks before moving to coilovers.

Jumpman2k, if you go to sell your springs, please let me know.

Best springs ever you wont be sorry. Its the only real lowering springs that increase the performance on our cars.
