LoL. I have the stock rims and tires. No rubbing and since I already back into all the parking stops, i don't have to worry about ruining the front of the car.

Swift Springs and Vorsteiner wheels. That sounds like a great pairing!

On a more serious note, I think you should run Swift if you want a good handling car and Ark if you want a good looking car. I don't have experience with the Ark so I cannot comment on the ride, but Swift springs make the car much happier; it feels better than stock on smooth pavement. Ark spings will lower your car more so I would speculate that it rides firmer than Swift.

After many hours looking through pics here and comparing brands I finally pulled the trigger and went with them! ArkGT-S springs got lot of great feed back here since I started the post asking about these.

I daily drive my car so wanted it to stay smooth when riding and look mean when parked. Got just that. Here's a quick photo I took out of focus lol better pics to follow stay tune. Been two weeks plus now since installed so I'm sure they are settled in by now ?
