After reading through all 127 pages of this thread I've finally ordered a set of Swift Springs and SPL rear camber links! I'm excited, damn... I forgot about the toe bolt.. think I might need it? if I do I hope I can just get some locally. Wish me luck boys.

They are the best, but in our streets, you gotta be extra careful.

Wait do you need aftermarket shocks for the swift springs? And is SPC camber links dangerous? will it break if i do some spirited canyon driving?

You do not need them, but they improve things dramatically. You can also join the Cool Kids with Koni club.

Koni's for sure but trying to decide between swift's or ARK GT-F springs, ARK's might be a hair lower with relatively the same spring rate.

I've got wheels 19x9.5 +20 and 19X11 +15..

Should I be concerned about rubbing?

I have Swifts but I should've bought ARK GT-Fs instead. It's a bit hard to tell, but the ARK springs sit lower, especially the GT-S.

Swift Spec R


ARK Performance GT-F


ARK Performance GT-S

The ARK may sit a bit lower, but I found that the spring rate in the Swifts were excellent and performance increased dramatically after the install. The ARK's may be lower, but are they better?? I have not seen them in person but I would be curious to know if they have the same performance characteristics that the Swifts have....
