They are stiffer than the stock springs, but no so much to compromise comfort.
So, any further comments on ride quality? Done any long drives yet? How are they with the freeway potholes at 80 mph, etc?

I am tempted by the red springs but I am concerned about the comfort. My S is daily driven ~50 miles, and sometimes even stock suspension is a bit harsh on our wonderful N Bay roads. Better handling is good though...

They are lighter in weight and a bit stiffer.
Below are the spring rates:
Stock AP1...... Front 3.9 KG____ Rear 5.2 KG
Stock AP2...... Front 4.1 KG____ Rear 4.8 KG
SWIFT REDs.. Front 4.55 KG___ Rear 6.0 KG
The REDs will lower you car by approximately 1 inch... for exact figures
go back to the top to the original post.
I have them on my car and I like them as they make my car more responsive.
For the price, they are an inexpensive up-grade... I have also installed the
SWIFT Sway Bars and both together they make my car handle great...
Once I partially wear out my OEM shocks I will replace them with fully adjustable
coilovers. In the mean time I will save my dollars...$$$ SAVE $$$

Joey,
I just posted the spring rates for ericq...
That will tell you what the spring rates are for the REDs.
In my opinion, SWIFT is the best Spring manufacturer in the market
to date... I have had Eibach, H&Rs and other brands and the
SWIFTS are better in comparison...
Call me or I'll call you and will talk...

Will you host a GB for the sway bars? I see Evasive has them for F&R @ 565. Would rather support a local company, let me know
Working on a GB for the SWIFT Sway Bars...
It will be coming soon, so keep your eyes on Quick Silver...

ey Joe isn't this GB a limited time offer only, if so isn't it gonna end soon?
The SWIFT SPRINGS GB ENDS MAY 31, 2006...
If your name isn't on the list by May 31, you are out of the GB.
