Got the Koni's and the Swift's installed today (And the SPL Arms, lockout kit and toe bolts, man those SPL arms are sweet!)

Rear:


Front:


Wheels Plus did them and did an amazing job, their customer service was second to none as well. They also mounted and balanced my RE-11's on the Advans (Sorry no pics, they are just sitting in the basement waiting for all the sand to get cleaned off the road!)

The setting I am running on the Koni's is full soft for both front and rear for now. The nice thing about these is you can adjust the fronts easily at any time just by popping the hood, and all you need to do to adjust the rears is pop the rear wheels off.

Initial driving impression is that the terrible, unbelievably bad, abysmal road conditions here are somewhat more manageable with this combo. The suspension feels stiffer and yet more absorbent to bumps somehow. Will post proper feedback once the new tires go on and I start driving her hard again.

Alignment finished with -1.7 up front with .04 toe in/side, -2.0 rear with .08 toe in/side. Going back for an alignment check in two weeks with the new wheels on. So glad this is done! She's starting to get close now, not looking forward to the 4 days of detailing that lies ahead of me though
