BC Type BR with Swifts?

Bigfish888 · 10-25-2014, 10:36 AM

Anyone running these here? I just ordered a set from Nu Gen along with SPL rear camber kit. I don't know much about suspension yet. So I'm curious as to what I should expect out of this setup. I have a set of WORK cv202 20x10 20x11.5 on the way to.

I am running basically the same set up just with added Hotchkis sways and SPC front camber arms. Pieced mine together went with 10k front swifts and 8k rears. Overall very happy with the setup, haven't had a chance to track it yet but for daily use it rides great and grip feels good during spirited driving.

Springs have settled about another 1/4 inch after this photo.

Install and ride height adjustment was easy and straightforward.

Great thats what I was looking for! Pictures too! lol
Im getting sways as well. I may try to tackle the install on my own. Im not sure yet. What made you decide 10K front and 8K rear spring rates? Are those the standard default that setup comes with? I was told 12K and 10K was good? I may be able to change the order still. I just need more info on custom S/R.

I was told the bc with swifts were 10k/6k and thought that 6k was too soft. I know the swift lowering springs are 10k/10.5 but from what I have read with the 370 everyone wants the front as very stiff with large sway bars and soft even stock rear sways so I figured the softer spring would help with rear bite and rotation. Maybe I'm just crazy, who knows.

I think your right actually. Maybe someone else will chime in?
