I have not tried his COs but there are a couple of members who I respect that have his stuff and are happy. He custom makes his own and they are made to order. I know one member has used them for rally racing and was happy with durability and ride.

Not sure made to order means, because many companies now are made to order, even the topic here, both Agility and BC, you can get custom spring rates and valving for it.
Like I said, I've researched them on other forums, and his stuff seems like any other JDM company except the worrisome part to me is that he's been banned from another forum for his business practice (something that I'll doubt you'll see from AST, KW, HKS, Eibach, etc, etc). Different strokes for different folks I guess.
Anyhoo, it appears that OP chose Swifts, good decision!

Yes, we carry Agility's with custom spring rates and valving, with available upgrades with Swift springs

Might be able to get custom spring rates but BC and Agility basically use the same parts and mix and match to make the coilovers for different cars regardless of the characteristics needed. I know AMR uses quality materials....I don't have them so take it from Robevo RS: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...-test-day.html, https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...brake-kit.html

That's not news to anyone? Companies mix and match to save on cost, car manufacturers mix and match parts to save on cost.

Regarding AMR, I have to go back to my associates again, we were at SEMA and met the Taiwan manufacturer that they use, and they're not even ISO9001 compliant (quality assurance) unlike most others that are sold here, so I highly doubt their quality material is better than others.
