Maybe close to that. They're a bit pricey, but if they have the rates/drop one wants, then matched with Konis would be a better value than coilovers.

How about the KG/MM? What drop do they have? But super stiff...
I did some looking but couldn't come up with the spring rates for the HKS-SP5. I confirmed the drop but not the rate. HKS website doesn't even list them now, but I saw them online for about $275.

Anyone have any experience with H&R springs? The drop is not too drastic which is what I'm looking for (my car is a DD and have some pretty bad roads here in Boston). I have the stock rims.

Also, I have an AP2 and it seems a lot of these springs were made for the AP1. Which spring keeps the front/rear balance for the 04+, Swift? That seems to have a bigger drop in th rear than the front which I kind of dont like. I rather have the car sit a little lower in the front than the back (like the H&R drop).

I like that ratio (I prefer a little more drop in the rear) but it's not very low...
