Default Lowered on Swift spec R springs, Video!

So heres a video from when I lowered my car on the swift spec R springs, hopefully you can get a rough idea on the height difference.
If there is any question you have regarding the springs (how they ride/handle) or if there is anything you want to see let me know and i'll incorporate it into my review video!

I'm using a DJI osmo, nice and stable but I'm still getting used to the gimbal and how to operate it.

Good video for reference for myself in the future. Also enjoyed seeing an Youtuber with a RCF. I subscribed!

let the springs settle for a week and then get an alignment to correct any toe you might have gotten from the install.
