The H&R's provide a lower drop than the Swifts. I do like the drop that the H&R's provide and if you are going for looks over performance they are just fine. If performance is what tickles your fancy then the Swifts are what you want, hands down.

Swifts + Koni shocks = great combo as advertised by people on this forum.

I've had the rears and fronts adjusted and the cars running great.

I'm sure there's load of better suspension adjustments that can be done but this satisfies me plenty.

Excellent. I had a feeling you'd be digging this.

I know factory the Swifts are 1.25" F & 1.0" R and the H&R's are 1.3" F & 1.0" R....But what are the final settled heights? I'm sure i've just over looked the answer in the past 100 pages i've browsed through.

Has anyone installed swift springs and kept the factory alignment? Is it possible? I know its probably not a good idea, but just wondering. I dont trust any of the shops here lol.
