why do you want Swift springs specifically? I mean.. I have them, but only because they were free... Would I have chosen them and spent $500+ on them? ***K NO! I let someone else do that then pass them on to me

i'm not looking for swift specifically.. i'm just still looking around on which lower spring suits my driving needs better..
so i was just wondering if swift springs were better than other springs.. at first i wanted s-tech.. but many ppl say tein spring didn't have enough rebound..
so i don't know what i should get right now..

lol, how do springs not have enough "rebound"?















compression/rebound is SHOCK talk, not SPRING talk. You must mean that the spring doesn't have enough spring rate.

I can tell you, no spring like ever make you 100% happy. Cause springs for struts suck.... even my coveted (by the LGT crowd) Swift springs...

well... i havn't really gone researching yet.. i was just browsing couple nasioc thread about tein s-tech..cuz that was my 1st choice..
which alot of ppl say have the best drop for the visual appearance..
but the travel of the springs are horrible and cause the car to be much too bouncy..
which is something i don't want.. i don't remember the exact thing.. cuz i only skimmed through couple thread that compare s-tech with prodrive and pinks..
right now i'm debating if i should get lower spring just for the visual look..
or just hold off..for coilover late on..
