I just got my swift springs installed this weekend and was told to wait about 200 miles before getting the alignment. Now Im just wondering.... Im in the market for new rims..... should I wait and get the rims first before getting the alignment or will it not matter ?



Thanks

 

It shouldn't matter.

 

where did you hear about waiting for the alignment? im installing my swift springs this week, and was going to get the alignment done the next day...

 

Compared to stock MR, how is the ride with the Swifts on the MR?

 

saiyan its better to let the springs settle for a few days, even a week or about 250 miles

 

Thats what I was told

 

Kinda hard to say............ seems like its a little softer to me but maybe the springs havent settled yet. I can say for sure that the drop is juuuusssstttt right !


Ill get some pictures up asap

 

I have the swifts installed on my MR ....seems like it's smoother than stock which is why it might feel softer?? these springs sure does absorb the bumps well

but for track use, I dont think these can hang....too much body roll for tracking...

 

With most tires it won't matter waiting a while, but if you are running super-fast wearing tires like Advans you might think about getting an alignment the next day, then another one in a week or so when the suspension settles again. The reason being, dismantling the suspension and installing lower springs will most likely result in excessive toe settings, normally being toe-out. It only took 1,000 miles for the inside of my Advans to be shredded after shoddy work by the dealer without any follow-up alignment.

 

I'm also dropped on Swift springs, I love it.

 

 

gotcha, that makes alot of sense, thanks guys

 

ive been in an MR with the swifts, and thats why I bought them, perfect drop, and smooth ride

 

I heard a swift rear sway bar helps with the body roll big time ! Thats whats next on the agenda !

 

any solid 25mm rear bar does, actually! Robispec recommended bar is the progress, but swift is probably just as good!
