I don't mind...the more information shared among us, the better!
We all can learn something new from other's experiences and hopefully avoid the negative and apply the positive.

I don't have much to say at this time...until I receive the Swifts and have them installed.

You may continue....

You sir are a gentledude. Thanks

Ok, last time, promise. Here are a couple of clips. You obviously won't feel the bumps here, but pay attention to how much the car jumps, it's pretty harsh in real life.

The first one is composed of two sudden drops, which immediately rises again (full compression, this is why i raised the car, it would scrape otherwise.)

The second one is where the next slab of concrete is probably an inch or few sticking out, thus the jump.

The third, well... :\

Forgive the compression on these, tried to get it small enough.
These are all high-def though, so view at full screen.

This is just a very small part of my daily 70+ mile commute. So, yeah, it gets taxing. In downtown alone, we have potholes to deal with, but at least there one has the ability to at least slow down without causing a pile-up behind you.

Spacers

Since I'm going to be dropped with Swifts, I was considering getting spacers to push the OEM Sport wheels flushed.
I'm considering with 20mm spacers all around.

As you know, my budget is extremely tight and during my research I found a set on eBay for $60/pr.
2pc 20mm Hubcentric Wheel Spacers Nissan Infiniti 66 1 66 2 Hub Bore | eBay

I've started another thread based on any suggestions regarding the quality here:

Advice regarding spacers...yes or no?
