However the swifts don't need them but if I was gonna go with RD, H&R or any of the springs that lower the car more I'd contact MRF or Dinan for the shaved guides/mounts along with the e36 bump stops. |

...wait. I'm looking up the shaved guide supports and its seems like they're just for shock travel. How would they affect ride height? It's basically just some of the rubber shaved off on the bottom of the top mount...

I only suggested this if you are going with springs that lower the car more than swifts. Dinan & MRF all carry OEM ones that are shaved. I highly doubt any of then make their own.

I'll try and get some pics of my car tomorrow. I just lowered mine on Swifts. Currently running 245/275/19s. It's a ZCP car. It's been noticeably lower for me.

Swifts are clearly lower than the stock ZCP springs by a decent margin (my E92 in the review was Comp Pk car). ZCP springs are only 10mm lower than stock E92 springs.

I don't see the point in riding 35 series tires on an 18" wheel unless you are unusually low. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of riding on 18's in the first place?? If you want a smoother ride then 40 series tires will do that better than a 35 series.

My car is in storage but from what I remember those images of your wheel gap seems off. I believe my car, with stock zcp wheels and tires, is about a 1 finger gap in the front and no gap in the rear. I am on e36 bumpstops but that shouldn't make any difference. The only thing I could suggest is bring it to a shop that's done a few of these and have them take a look at it...

Same. Been running the OEM bumpstops with zero issues. As mentioned before, I have called Swift to discuss bumpstops and they mentioned their spring is designed to use the progressive nature of the OEM bumpstop just like the OEM springs do. They said it won't hurt to move to E36 bumpstops but they recommend staying with the ones designed for the shocks.
