Smile Another Roadster with Swift springs

I had Swift springs installed this Veterans Day holiday weekend. I stewed over it the past couple years after reading great reviews and finally pulled the trigger in September. I wasn't looking for too much of a drop, and these promised to fit the bill.

I didn't measure before the install, but it looks like the drop is as advertised, if not a tad more. I also went from a 15F/20R spacer set-up to 20F/25R. So far, I'm pleased with the results.

My current tires are due for replacement soon, so this was a great opportunity to get an alignment and see how the insides wear with near neutral toe and increased camber. I'm not even sure if I can achieve these specs without camber arms and/or toe bolts, but I am positioned to purchase them, if necessary, before I change out the rubber.

I try to take a minimalist approach to how my cars look, so usually a drop with springs is about as radical as I get. I think she looks clean and simple, much the way I prefer my lifestyle.

I thought I'd share for those who are considering doing the same. Of course, the post has only a small value without pictures, so here are a few. There are more in my forum album, if interested.

Cheers!
