Springs! Post your Pics!!

Hey guys,

I want to start modding the car, and am leaning towards getting sportlines or swift springs. We had a thread like this in my z forum, but didn't see one here, so sorry if I missed it. Anyways, post pics of your ride with aftermarket springs. Including wheel specs would help as I am trying to see how much gap is left. Thanks!

What are your thoughts on the H&Rs. I use to have them on my Elantra. How's the ride quality?

Just a tad bit stiffer. Running stock shocks. The Swifts I'm running are made for the BRZ (fronts are stiffer). They are comfortable and nothing harsh.
