Swifts ... great looking drop, gives the car a great low/but not dumped stance. Still keeps near OEM feel.

I like my Tanabe GF210 Springs, about a 1 inch drop, ride is a touch firmer than stock. The spring rates were slightly higher than the stock AP2. I'm very happy with the ride for the time being, as soon as my shocks blow i'll be in the market for some nice coilovers. FYI, nd I have put about 30K miles/3 years on them and my stock shocks still feel fine.

You realize you brought back a 8 month old thread?

You've clearly never priced out Backyard Special springs.
