yes. pictures do not do the springs justice. the drop is way more noticeable in person. for those you want to go LOW or slammed, these arent for you. These are a very mild drop.

Awesome thanks for the reply. How much where they and what website u buy them from? I'm looking for that exact drop and how's the ride?

Cause I got maya rt5 rims there 19's I'm gonna put on with wide tires 255 f 285 r you think that would be fine with those springs?

Hopefully we have a eibach convert to answer the questions below =)

1) How does the drop compare to eibach springs in terms of height when full settled? I believe it's less of a rake look and more balanced.

2) What about ride quality compared to eibach are they similar, more comfortable, stiffer?

3) Based on the drop most eibach doesn't seem like camber kits are that critical as the specs come close to stock alignment but what about swift?
