With those dampers I would def go with the Eibachs. The Swifts barely lower the Fit at all. Where in Orlando are you located? We have a weekly meet at the Sonic on Semoran & Lake Underhill, you should show up

From: California, that's right
Swift springs with stock shocks/dampers lowers the front decently - back, barely. Front is a 1 finger gap and back is like 3 finger gap. Handling wise it's very good though.

Same here. Eibach pro-kit is just wayyyyyyyyyy too soft for me. I shoulda just buy a set of Swift springs at the first place coz they're linear springs.
With the pro-kit front/T1R V1 springs rear setup right now my car rotates quite well but still response a little too slow in some tight corners I think?

When I max out my current suspension & tranny setup then I will get the swift springs.
