Perhaps he'd be better off in a Prius or Smart car, in a skirt.

Nope. I think they are near perfect.

The Swifts are the perfect drop for this car. One question, I installed mine and I put the plastic sleeve from the OEM spring on the Swifts, but not the way it's in the picture that came with the instructions. I placed it from the begin of the spring. I have a little noise coming from the front. Can I just put another sleeve on the spring? I don't want to take them out again to just move the little plastic sleeve.

My front left makes noises when i go up the driveway and im pretty sure the sleeve is installed correctly. I've learned to just live with it.

I don't like the way my Swifts make the car handle better. It attracts too much attention to my poor driving skills.... and the compliments I get from the stance are just way too embarrassing....
