whats always concerned me about buying springs for my 2005 wrx is the fact that no one makes a easy bolt in shock for them yet. I wouldnt go to the trouble of a spring job without changing the shocks, especially with 65k on my clock.

Swift actually designed to work best with the oem struts. Its not just a made up spring rate.

We recommend Auto Innovations in Milpitas for this. Tell them we sent you and they'll hook you up.

These are a replacement spring, yes.

The sport springs will. The Spec-R no though.

$440 installed OTD for the Sports.

Even oem struts that have 60k on them? Would them be able to keep the added spring rate under control? I figure the shocks are tired at about 60k miles.

As long are your struts aren't blown.
