Though I don't remember exactly what it was, but there was a dash and an additional number at the end of the part number that supposedly indicated they were for a Roadster. I have no information on the spring rates, but they did seem a little stiffer than stock. The problem I had with them is they dropped the car too much. I could barely get the thickness of my fingers between the top of the tire and the fender. For clearance sake, I had to run too much negative camber and personally, I don't care for the hellaflush look. It's great on Joe Blow's Civic, but it's not for me. They stayed on the car a total of 3 days and I went back to stock . As far as I'm concerned, it was a lot of work for nothing, except I got that whole lowering my car notion out of my head. I wish I had taken pictures, but sadly they didn't stay on there long enough for any. As far as the springs go, they seemed fine. Just personal preference.
I'm with you on the height. Girls don't drop their drawers when you drop your ride (if they did, we'd all have air ride). I want performance and comfort without a hassle and I should have my Beilstein's tomorrow. My stock shocks must have drooped as their were 2 fingers gap. The Swift is now a girls finger gap. I'll have to test it out and see if I like it. I think the Nismo kit would have been ideal with only 1/4" drop but it's too late now.
