will swift springs blow the bilsteins eventually?
 
my car is lowered and my struts are already blown to it's last breath. i know aftermarket lower springs will blow all stock struts eventually but how do the MR bilsteins handle them? i plan on getting swift springs with MR bilsteins and i wonder will it blow them out sooner or later?

Swifts won't blow Bilsteins. Yes they lower the car, but the car is not slammed....

Spring rates are matched to the Bilsteins as well. Mitsu sent us that car with springs too soft, so the dampers can easily handle the increased spring rate.


We've had Swifts out on customers cars for quite a while now (at least 1.5 years?) with no reports of a decrease in performance or blown struts.
