As for the swift springs, those look great. So all you changed are the springs, then left the OEM shocks? Any foreseeable issue with this? Or is it perfectly acceptable to run aftermarket springs with stock shocks?
Thanks man!
Yup, the inspiration for the caliper colour was the 40th... that, and I just think sports cars should have red brakes. Not that there's anything wrong with colour matched calipers like on a lime green Lamborghini Superleggara
With aftermarket lowering springs on stock shocks, the main issue is springs that are too low and cause the shock piston to work outside of its normal stroke range and bottom out. The Swift springs have a conservative drop and I don't think they'll be an issue. Time will tell.
