Swift Sport Spring
#106
I got mine in also and these are hidden gems. The ride is 95% stock in terms of smoothness, handing has improved with less body roll in corners and the drop is just perfect. I was a bit skeptical when I received the box and it looked 20 years old but the other reviews from this thread didn't let me down.

A friend had some Indestructible industrial rubber sheets. We cut out a spacer with them to place at the mounts in the rear. Worked great because it absorbed also. The rubber was 1.2mm thick. I just did not want the Front sitting higher Rake!
That pic was the 1st couple of hours after install. Both the front and back have setteled just a razor more, and I like it. I am not a slammed look car guy. With the Tires/wheels, being I have new AVS Struts and the Steering rack bushings it's night and day handeling. Handels like it's on rails. Still rides just about stock for comfort very much. I also added spacers to the front wheels, and a Megan front Steering Stabilizer bar.
Of recent compared to the Pics above previously posted you can see it's dropped just a razor lower (compare back wheel diffrent pics), after a month or so.

Ah yes i was thinking the same so i got some slightly thicker spring pads from other makes. Just eyeballed the size and ordered 2 pairs, they're on the way and i hope they fit haha.

I just release most front and rear arm and links and re-tighten them under load when changing to Swift springs. After that had an alignment done.
