Make sure you get the right specs.

For example I have BC Racing 16/12 upgrade swift springs ISF fitment.

I wouldn't mess with adding swift springs on your own. It has to be done properly.

lowering a car of this caliber is risky enough. Dont want to upset the balance .I would just use the BC springs as well

You can't use springs designed for your stock shocks on coilovers. The BC coilover Swift springs you read about on the forum are specially made to work with the coilovers.

Swift springs for BC coilover and Swift springs designed for OEM shocks are totally different, you can't put them together.
