Swift Springs and 20mm spacers on IPL

Got them on last night...looks good, rides great! looking for a bit more drop as they settle. I got so far 1 1/8" in front and 1" drop in rear.

Classy! Looks good, how do they rude over potholes or bumpy roads? Do they get bouncy? Think I'm gonna try the fortune coilovers with swift spring upgrade next!

Oh, yeah, the IPL definitely benefits from a drop!!

The spring mount/perch mod can add 1/2" more drop on the rears.
I have Eibachs, and did the mod.

Very nice, I think the main thing with these kits is making sure the front is lower than the rear. The IPL front sits a decent amount higher than the sides. Looks good.

The ride actually feels just like it did prior to the springs. About the front being higher, it does seem to be a bit higher than the rear but not bad at all. I am definately happy with just the springs, for all the driving i do and this being my DD I do not feel like coilovers would have benefited me.
I am especially happy with the way the wheels look pushed out 20mm's.

Are ipl springs the same as sport? I know many people have said eibach makes it a tad stiffer and rougher but it sounds like swifts do not

Do you know any difference during aggressive cornering?

Cool IPL with Swift Sport Springs

Hi guys, thought I'd share my IPL set up with Swift Springs all around and the 20mm front and 15mm spacers in the rear.
