+1 on this. also has anyone run swifts for extended miles and not run into strut issues? seems like tanabes cause extremely premature strut wear. swift advertises their sprints to work with OEM struts

I have also heard great things about swift springs. Subtle drop that will close the gap without going too low. Have mine on order and going to have them installed when they get in.

I’ve had them on for about a year now. Still love them. I don’t notice any difference from stock and the drop looks good. I wish they were a tad lower but I like how they feel compared to the tanabes, and would go with them again.

For those lowered on Swift Springs. Do you need to get an alignment after? Planning to lower mines on these soon and would like to know if alignment is necessary thanks!

I would as they are usually taking out the strut so an alignment is necessary.

those who have swift springs, what rates did you go with? I'll be getting BC coilovers with swift springs in the very near future. It's interesting that this set up isn't more common in the 4th gen GS..I love my BC coilover and swift spring set up in the IS-F. Any help is appreciated!

Has everyone lowered on swift springs been able to get factory spec alignment without any aftermarket control arms or bolts?

I have Swift springs and for an alignment about a week or so after they were installed. No issues getting to factory specs without any additional parts.
