      You won't like them, I use 450 with my swap and no issues, found the 525s to be a little too harsh for my liking.

        I went from 550 to 500 and I'm much happier.

            Interesting!

            I have the same setup as before as my old car with newer components(shocks, bushings, CABs,....) but didnt think 75lbs for each inch of compression would make it ride like shit.

            I get this weird seesaw effect with bouncing front to back. I have adjusted the shocks from - to + and inbetween and it doesnt go away. So I am guessing it is the springs.

            Thnx for the input guys.

              Can someone recommend a shop to fix a slightly bent wheel? Rough idea of the cost? I want to have 5 straight SSR wheels for my car

                I just changed my springs to swift 450 front and 550 rear (8k f 10k r) from 8kf/8kr and it was a huge difference. Feels much more composed in the rear especially. I think thats a pretty popular setup. If anything people play with 500-650lb rear springs to better suite their shock.

I have a 17" black rim with a polished lip and i hit a pot hole on the 10 east bound fwy and bent it...A co-worker recommended this place, so I went and gave it a shot. 4 days later, it was done, and when I picked it up, it looked brand spanking new. I was so impressed with their workmanship, I dug up a set of damaged racing hart 3 piece 16" C2's sitting in my garage for over 3 years...dropped them off, and about a week later, they were done! Looks like they just came out of the box! If you take your wheels there and have them look at it, they will tell you up front if its repairable and at what cost. No Bull..No hidden fees and all.."
