The write-ups & pics look promising. HondaFitTuner [HondaFittuner.com :: Suspension :: Swift Springs] has them for $250.

Alright I just got my Swift springs on the car, and there's definitely a difference in the handling of the car. I can go in circles that I would have otherwise fallen out of my seat with stock springs.

My question is, right now the front has about a 1 to 1 1/2 finger gap and the rear has a good 3 finger gap. Is this right? I didn't think the back would be so much higher than the front.

The back does seem higher. I was hoping to see a more even stance. However, I'm very tempted to going this route. I was debating on getting air shocks to make the ride less bumpy, but I'm not too sure about having to inflate them from time to time. More reviews on Swift Springs will be the deciding factor. Again, I'm looking for more ride comfort, then stance and maneuverability.

I Love the Swift springs on my GD3 too. Improved handling without an apparent sacrifice in ride comfort. Seems to work pretty good with my stock shocks. IMO, perfect for my DD.

Sorry to bring up an old thread.
I just bought these springs and I'm stoked to have them installed this weekend.

I notice the name of the Swifts are either call Sport Springs or Sport Mach. I've seen two different names on the boxes but are they the same thing or different?

Mine are printed Sport Springs on the box.

Thanks!
