far out. far fuckin outI received this email Tuesday January 8th.
"We have finished testing on the springs and are going to be put into production. They will be released Q1 of this year, just keep an eye out for when they are released.
Best regards,
Brian Shiokari"
Looks like we will finally have them soon.
far out. far fuckin out
Same.I have waited a year, what's a few more months lol
according to swift's website, their spring rates will be higher than Eibach prokit. According to another thread on here Eibach is 157lb/in fr. & up to 183lb/in rear (progressive). Swift lists theirs as 3.8kg/mm fr 5.5kg/mm rear. you can use an online calculator to convert the units. 5.5k is about 300lb/in I believe.How does swift compare with what is currently on the market? Eibach, d2, skunk..etc.
Actually the swift springs are not Linear they are dual rate springs .
Linear springs of 6k and 7k would make it very bouncy .
Most of the oem springs are linear but are very mild spring rates.
I recently found out the 2016 Civic FK2 Type R uses dual rate Rear springs stock.
For me its mostly about the spring rates and the ratio between front and rear. Most of the aftermarket spring manufacturers are all around the same spring rate .
Spoon/Eibach/H&R/RS-R/Megan Racing Are all around 150-160 lbs/in front and 180-190lbs/in rear .
Swift is the only one that has very different rates 213lbs/in front and 308lbs/in rear and also the ratio between front and rear is very different.
Other factors are that most of them are Progressive spring rates and swift is dual rate .
Dual rate springs drive and act different then a progressive spring .
