Well, my friend has ordered a set of your RCE Yellows and Koni's so i will take a taxi ride in his car and i reckon if his koni's can handle the Yellows, it should also do well for my Swifts no??


But coils are tempting for one reason, i find my ride height abit too low... Needs a lift cos i have slight scraping issues with the ramps in my carpark....
Sorry, Bilstein B6 = Bilstein HD.

Definitely go for a ride with your friend to check it out. Konis will do well with Swifts. Our springs are a little taller and use replacement shortened bumpstops so the ride may be slightly better with our springs, but you'll still get a good idea of what to expect.

Both are good shocks...IMO Bilsteins ride better over big bumps, but Konis are a little smoother over small stuff.
