Guys,

I own a 2011 ISF - I go 100 everyday and over 150 twice a week. (Highway to work daily)

My hit list is huge probably because most people racing in Miami are afraid to go over 140.

My point is I love the way my suspension feels but I want to get rid of that huge gap in the front.

Will I lose anything from putting swift springs in the front? I want the stiffness and ride quality to stay the same (It just feels so safe)

Any advice would be great.

 

I'm going the same route as you, I have purchased my springs already but only plan to install the fronts. Many other members have done the same. Dropping the front only would even out the gap with the rear, but it will give it somewhat of a rake look.

 

pfft. I go 125 every day...

Seriously tho - me too, I am very interested in swift springs (instead of coilovers). I have read that the ride quality remains essentially the same. I suspect handling will suffer a little bit because of the change to the front geometry.

 

Lol 125 BAWSE.

Yeahh handling is key to me also, that where i do the most damage to ppl

 

Upgrading the rear sway bar with the F-Sport will help balance the handling

 

I actually never drive faster than 85 on the street.

 

I didn't know there were roads in NJ to drive like that.

I'm heading to Macon County GA next weekend to race cops lol. My 2 buddies are highway officers

 

Look into some paint protection film if you haven't already.

My bumper is all pock marked up from doing 100+ mph on the highway during my work commute.

 

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll look into that.

 

Also, from my past experience with going fast with aftermarket parts..unless they are quality and thoroughly tested...if you are going that fast you might just want to stick with OEM. :\

 

I'm hoping lobuxracer has some advise

 

2011 oem spring vs swift springs are almost identical. Swift will just lower the front a tad more

 

Any good retailers online to buy Swift Springs for an IS250 AWD?

 

PM Figs. He'll give you a great deal. Way less than his advertised website price

 

Sounds like a plan to me, is his user just FIGS, even though I been on this board from some time I have to admit I stayed away because reading all these posts just make me want to spend money. lol But its time to buy a set of new wheels, looking for some black ones and was thinking of getting a new set of springs to go with it, I have seen a ton of pics from searching and have to admit you guys got some sick looking rides. Hopefully I get mine there. I ll post a pic of my ride shortly. Nothing to special though.
