Swift springs or br bc coilovers?

100% guarantee that shock failed because he didn't set the load correctly and put all the energy into the absorber instead of the coil. Happens all the time. Don't bash em if you've never tried em.

Over the winter I might send the rear springs back to them to be checked for spring rate and see if I can get something a bit softer... the front is set almost fully on firm and feels nice and planted... the rear just seems like it doesn't have enough weight (as I stated I have a G37 kit which was made for a heavier rear setup).

I don't think anyone is denying that the Swifts are nice springs, they just don't give you enough drop. Any time you lower the car you are generally going to compromise some ride "comfort"... just a matter of how much you are willing to deal with for the given drop. For the money, quality and adjustibility I found the BCs to be a pretty descent option.

I'd still consider used KWs or something of that nature if you truly have a $1,500 budget.
