*** The Swift Springs 370Z Lowering Springs are Linear Springs***

Explanation from Swift:

- They appear to be progressive, but with the weight of the car, the tight coiled portion is actually fully compressed keeping the spring rate linear.

This was done because they did not want to have any slack on the shock and spring when the shock is fully decompressed. This is beneficial when driving onto a driveway or going over heavy dips.

Good question, we work close with Swift Springs on all of our race car setups, so we were really excited to hear that they were going to start manufacturing lowering springs as well.

We prefer to test as many parts that we offer as we can and this was a great opportunity to try them out.

That being said, I think these springs ride amazing on the street. They feel great in the corners and we will post a full review when we get them out on the track.

But we expect great things and we are very excited about this new product.

Let us know if you have any other questions and we would be happy to help.
