John I just bought Swift spec R lowering springs for my CR i wanted to get some feedback from you and see what you thought about it let me know please

I just installed some Swift Spec-R's along with some OTS Koni Yellows (Sports) and dropped the car back on its wheels for the first time last night. DAMN does the front sit lower than I thought it would. I hate when people talk in "finger gaps" but since I didn't measure properly yet... the rear is about a two finger gap, and the front I can barely get my index finger in there! Lower than I was expecting, especially for just having put it back on its wheels without any settling on the springs yet. And yes, the Koni's are all on their upper perch.

Time will tell, and I need to stiffen up the Koni's before I say too much, but I felt some dragging over the multitude of bumps and dips in my neighborhood, but no issues getting in and out of my driveway nor any issues at higher speeds.

Now what is this that I have seen where some people reverse the springs and put the 7.5's in the rear and the 7.0's in the front?

*edit - Sorry to barge in on you CR guys... did a search and didn't notice what forum this was posted in!

For the ride height, the CR looks like it should have come from the factory IMO with my current setup. I dont autoX or race mine so I cant give you feed back there, but as far as spirited driving and DD goes I can. The harshness of every imperfection is smoothed out and handling seems to be very similar to the stock CR springs. To reiterate, I am still on the original CR struts and now just over 19k on the car.

Congrats on your new CR! Hope you find our little corner of the world helpful and fun!

if you have a CR, don't get the regular sport mach. the stock CR dampers are too much for the sport mach. we put the sport mach on the cr shocks on my friend's ap2, and the front end according to him feels over damped.
