I got my Swift springs installed just yesterday.

All I gotta say is all the hype about them riding BETTER than stock is true. It certainly feels a bit smoother to me. Body roll is reduced greatly as well. You pay a premium price compared to other springs, but all in all I couldn't be happier, until I upgrade to coilovers in the future!

Thank God for this board and all the stuff i've learned!

I don't even know if you got your Swifts from us, but geez, it's great to see such a good review of these. Someone's got to convince the "coilovers or bust" crowd

nice review.

Espelir are one of the best. the GT version is pretty stiff, next will be the ASD. right now it's pretty hard to get either one. So Swift will be compromisable.

I have an IX and find the stock suspension set-up too stiff for daily driving at low speeds. What do you recommend?

Do a search about the Swift springs, or look up a few posts. You'll see that most people agree that the Swifts ride better then stock, and improve performance while they're at it.

I'm getting my SWIFT springs installed this week. THey're expensive but worth every cent after my test drive in a car equipped with them. The drop is minimal and the performance is amazing.

Swift springs are the way to go for the Evos 8 & 9S!
