Thank you. I'm loving the new look. Only issue is the front tires on a 10" wheel. I bought the setup used and the front tires are 255/30/19. The sidewall is too small and looksa little weird to me. But overall I'm very happy with the look. Now in need of painted reflectors lol

Nice!
I got swift springs too! However, my driver side seems to sit about 0.5 inch higher than the passenger side. Are yours all perfect all around?

Honestly I haven't measured. But visually it looks the same. I had that issue with coil overs on previous cars. Hopefully not with springs. I'll have to measure. And thank you for the compliments. I'm loving the swift springs and wheels.

Mine are the same. I think they take into account the driver sitting in will lower it slightly.

These wheels look right at home! You picked the best finish combo as well.

Nice ride!

Yours is the same as in it sits evenly or one side is slightly higher

Thank you for the compliments. I really appreciate it. After I saw a guy in florida post these wheels for sale I started researching them. I found a guy in NC with the same exact setup and I totally loved the look. So it was perfect timing the guy from Fl was selling his. So I jumped on them lol

When the shop measured it recently, they stated the driver's side sits slightly higher.

I read this is the norm with swifts on the GTR forums.
