i dont recall the number exactly, but the swift spring rate is like 30% stiffer than stock. you are asking the shock to absorb that much harder, i dont believe it one bit that it would be good for its longevity. as far as performance, the difference would be very minimal and there is really no way to adjust or fine tune it. you are better off saving your money on tires brakes and driving classes. if you need to mod, get some sway bars instead as they are at least adjustable.

the z spring is stiff compare to the corvette z51 and rx8, it really isnt all that bad of a setup fpor a stock car. obviously it would be better to have coilover and more front cambers, but some are complete overkil for a street vehicle. also no one ever looks at the class impact and all the other bs should they decide to enter time trials, you can spend your money on a lot better places...

is swift springs made by swift motorsports in norwich ct?
