Hello i'm looking to lower my car what spring is better EIBACH or SWIFT???

 

Swift hands down

 

care to elaborate? i'm deciding between these two also. this might be a dumb question but does anyone know if linear springs (swift) may be more prone to rubbing? seems like most people go with eibachs (progressive) for some reason.

 

I have never heard of Swift Springs. I have heard nothing but good things about Eibach.

 

swift springs

http://www.swiftsprings.com/faq03.html has all the info you need

this sums it up:

 

swift

 

I might give swift a try.. I had the Eibachs and am now on Espelirs. If anyone has done the homework who has the best prices on the swift springs?? Time to do some research!

 

from the link: "Using the above example a 6kg/mm linear spring will take 300kg to compress 50mm while it will take 594kg to compress the progressive spring."

does that mean the linear spring will reach its maximum compression with comparatively less load? meaning the wheel will be more prone to rubbing? i'm still not entirely certain what all this physics mumbo jumbo translates to in practical use. anyone with 18" ssr comps have experience with these springs?

 

If I remember correctly, the stock springs are still weaker than the 300kg rated Swift's above...so rubbing shouldn't be a problem.

But yes, it would be even less of a concern with the 594kg

 

the list of top level race cars (not just JDM) using these springs is impressive.
