i think most people are using offsets more than +40mm or wider wheel
width of 7" or just running bulky summer high perf tires.

any of the above could lead to rubbing. i knew with +40mm my wheels
would be pretty much pushed out to the max on the front so used
195/50/15's and all season tires. if i was to run summers, i would
use +45mm.

 

Any links to dealers who stock the USDM Fit Swift Springs? I am looking to do a minimal drop with 17s and I'd like to go with Swift but only if its certan it drops the car 1.2"

 

I did a quick search since I'm also interested in Swift springs (eventually)-

and

Swift Sport Springs Honda Fit free shipping to 48 state - Suspension

I'm sure there are other retailers who carry these springs as well.

 

i just installed my swift's and like them so far. I got the ones for the USDM fit from Evasive Motorsports. I'll take pics in a few days not sure if these are going to settle at all.

 

Post pics as most people would like to see the difference.

 

here ya go, sorry the lighting in the pic isnt awesome but you get the idea.

 

wow, that is a phenomenal stance! looks great!

 

now now, eldaino... let's be nice.

 

did i sound sarcastic?!! i actually do like it! i think fits lowered on oem wheels are nice.

do you not like it kenchan?

 

i do not not like the stance cause it's definitely a drop, but i drop it more
like i mean it. not slammed, but a significant drop.

 

Thanks for sharing the pics.

I like the drop just fine. I don't want too much, I need to clear normal things without worrying about having to crab over them or rip something off the car. From what I've read, the Swifts are practical lowering springs; they improve the ride and handling of the car without compromising daily usability. That appeals to me.

 

yea i still scrape the front on stuf but not too bad. They are pretty practical, any lower would be really bad.

 

i know that how you prefer it ken, with your fancy enduratechs!

some of us just gotta hang high........

 

hey guys im running 18s with 215/40 tires on them and was wondering if they would rub with the swift springs?
