Which spring to get?

Hey guys, looking to drop the ride. Leaning towards swift springs, but wanted to get opinions first. After the drop I wanna get 20x10 and 20x11 rear if possible. Worst case 20x10 square setup. This drop seems pretty subtle and want a spring that won't be as spongy as some others.....Also, I've did alot of searches and it "seems" these springs you may not need a camber kit with them. Sooo I'd like to hear from people who have these springs or others that may not need a camber kit. Worst case I get one but rather save 150-200 plus the install "if possible". Thanks in advance.

I have them on my sedan and I was able to run them with no camber kit, my tires are wearing appropriately and no uneven tread wear. My aligment is running at negative 1.7 camber and toe is all in spec. Running that little camber won't decrease the life of the tires but toe does. I suggest then because they are a great spring and ride very good.

I wouldn't say you "need" one, depends how much camber you want to run.

I have the Eibach Pro Kit and have always loved the ride until I got my wheel spacers installed and now I notice like a 1 inch gap that bugs me so bad lol I'm thinking either coils or a full blown air lift kit.

I thought you were all good. What happened man! You should have kept the stance wheels 😔

OP I have eibachs it is a bit more aggressive than swift so it all depends on what your looking for. Both are fine choices there are detailed posts showing the drop difference via pics.

After getting my spacers put on there's like a 1 inch gap and it's really bugs me. Pretty sure I'm getting the stance ture coilovers for my awd coupe in the near future. Wanna get my funds right before I take the plunge Jeff lol
