New clean photos on swift springs (AWD)

Just washed the car and figured it was a good time to take some photos. I have had the car since last December and these are really the first time I am actually taking photos of the car not using a cell phone.

I think the drop is fairly nice, and the ride I got used to by now.

Just noticed from the photos that the car could def. use some wheel spacers.

May wait - thinking of buying 20" wheels one day, may buy the spacers then.

Great pics si driver, drop looks very good. If you end up getting 20s no need for spacers, just get optimum offsets and you'll be good to go.

Not exactly, but I may be a little too old for " Most MDMAX activities consist of nightly meets, track meets, and large spring/summer events."

It's not too bad, great actually. The first few days before the whole car/springs/suspension settles a little it feels too stiff/harsh, however now after a few weeks on them , I absolutely love them.

It doesn't feel as stiff anymore, I don't really feel it anymore driving down the highway or most nice clean roads. You do however, have to slow down for speed bumps and potholes etc.

The looks and feel is my sportier than stock.

One added benefit that I did not expect, the acceleration feels better / faster / crispier / snappier. Even while under breaking it feels more stable.


I think you feel love it..

Damn! Great pix OP! Drop looks good... Gonna order mine when I get to Cali... Going back to my old stomping grounds.... I'll prolly install them after the upcoming winter.

Maybe I can drop by Stillen for a few goodies while I'm back in Cali

G37 AWD + Swifts = good looks and comfort!

Great job OP!
