How big is the difference of the drop on a swift vs Tein's?
Which vendor has a good price for a swift?

Here's a tip too. Shop around, especially with our vendors. You can save a pretty nice amount because they all want to beat each others prices. I got mine for $295 shipped to me

And I thank you wheee! Couldn't be happier teins were not horrible by any means but the swift springs just seem to handle a little better and I was getting a fair bit of rubbing up front with the teins and so far with the swifts there has been none. Save the money and do it right the first time! Got my swifts from kamispeed, service was great!

Having Swifts, rear cambers and toe bolt and 20mm F & 25mm R spacers put on tomorrow. I have a question regarding the camber front to rear. Some on here have said that more negative camber up front yields better handling, but I see most run with more negative camber in the rear. Your thoughts please.
