The Evo needs a lot more front roll resistance... however, you choose to balance that.

I just installed Swift GSR's with Bilstein HD's and I'm very happy with the handling. I was hoping for a little more of a drop though. My Hotchkis's were much lower. Anyone know if the Swift's will settle a bit with time?

Great to hear!

They should not settle that much.

You really cannot get any more drop without negatively effecting other areas.

The Evo suspension geometry goes to hell quick with lowering!!! I'd say the swifts are by far as low as I'd go and expect the car to perform correctly.
