Sudjestions on springs
I currently have eibach springs with stock struts on my car and they are fine, but im tired of the rough ride. I run 20" wheels in the summer and the stock wheel in the winter. What Im looking to find out is I want a smother ride, And possibly a tad higher. My car feels every little bump and my car is starting to rattle and it kills me when I have the stock wheels on and im dragging speedbumps. Give me you recomendations.
Thanks

Eibach springs are harsh? the eibach drop is modest. maybe the stock struts gave out.
My suggestion: Tanabe NF210 springs and KYB-GR2 struts. $500 new. i went from flex's (stiffer and lower ride) to these. i got them on 20s too. i loved the ride. can't wait to put on the stock 17s for more tire. they're good on the nyc streets so i'm sure they'll be good in cali.
here's a pic of the drop:

Thanks movinquick
Ive been reading thet swift are almost stock ride but 1" lower. Anyone verify this for me. Ive read a ton of stuff on CL but I just dont understand all the tech info, Im looking for a close to stcok ride with about 1" lower. I dont race, or go to a track.
Any info would be great

It could be that your shocks are going bad because of the aftermarket springs. Usually when you upgrade just your springs, the factory shocks will go soon after. Your low profile tires doesn't help either lol. I think it's a combination of the two.
