I can't decide between which springs I want. The GF210s are a bit cheaper, but I had Swifts on my STI and loved them. I don't want to sacrifice any performance and couldn't care less for which one lowers the car more.

Which is better performance wise? Thanks!

Most suspension gurus around here will recommend the Swifts for performance

I don't have a X, but I've used both of these springs on my VIII and most certainly the Swifts are better. The Tanabe's made the car sit funky. Again this is for an VIII. I measured factory ride height vs. my ride height from the ground the the fender and found that the Tanabe's lowered the car 2.25" front and about .25" rear. I wasn't pleased.

Just go with the Swifts

Really? I've got a set on my car (VIII) and it sits great. My friend (IX) ended up selling his swifts to get the Tanabe because he liked them better then his swifts.

Swift Sport Mach ...... 2.7 - 4.3 kg ...... 2.3 - 4.4 kg .......... 1.0" / 0.6"
Tanabe GF210 ............. 4.5 kg ............... 3.5 kg ............... 0.7" / 1.1"


That's kind of a silly rate to use in the rear for the Tanabe's, and with a rear dropped .4 inches lower then the front I'd expect a fair bit of understeer.

Ugh, how I regret going with Eibachs.

I guess my progress rear sway covers any understeer issues up.

Swift's seem to be the best for Evo X.....Ordering myself a set this week. Im sure once I get them on that Swift will announce that they are releasing the Track versions.
