That is GS perfection right there, nice job! I'll get some photos of mine soon! How's the ride?
Thanks brother! The ride is exactly how you mention, I’d say 95% stock, just has more ***** to it on turns/corners now. Def can feel it more on S+ !

& looking good man! These Swifts do this car so right, what are wheel/tire specs?
Did you use thicker rear spring pads to prop up the height a lil bit?
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.

How long did it took for your swift to fully settled to its current height?
About a month. But I don't drive it much. Why? Do you think its too, high or too low??
Installed mine since Dec, height seems to be going down slightly compared to earlier Jan.....or prolly just my imagination. Maybe to take proper measurements 😂

If anyone is wondering how a 16+ 4GS (F-Sport) looks on stock wheels, here you go. No spacers yet, planning on 20mm all around. Very happy with the subtle drop, perfect and not “ricey” imo.

I installed new Struts also all the way around. Maybe why not droping so much.
