^Nope, had them on mine and the bros for the last year (with Eibachs) and no rubbing at all. And just installed Swift on both cars late last month with 600 miles and no rub at all.

Much better than OEM and Eibach, smoother ride and when cornering there is no body roll. It's amazing because I would think springs this confortable would be terrible in the twisties....NOT. Swift really took the Oscar this year especially since they manufactured them to go with OEM shocks. Best bang for the buck and some!

I am also running with Stillen sways.

They track very well and feedback is great.

No problem I wanted to give back to the community who has been very helpful with my decision making when it comes to mods.

Lucky you, wish I could afford new rims, What did you settle on for rims? g/l with sale on spacers they should go real fast, high demand out there in the community.

Looks much better. Thinking about doing this on my NISMO, but want to make sure I won't rub with 305 rubber out back and 265 up front. Anyone know?

i doubt the rear would sit that flush with +22 (10.5" width) on the rear on that blue car.
i think chopped or 10mm spacers used.

Great post...thanks for the before and after pics. I'm trying to decide on 15mm spacers for my new TSWs.
