Outside of being a tad stiffer (possibly) most of the handling characteristics should maintained right? Also, should i be worried about ground clearance? Los Angeles roads kind of suck, plus the driveway to my office is rather steep.
I have tried to get some seat time in other's cars who have RCE yellows, but time has been a constraint for me  .

The RCE are an even spring rate. To me it has made the car still rotate OK but is way less twitchy at the limit. I chose them over the Swift because I felt they were a bit more neutral which made me feel safer pushing it. If you like the car to rotate a lot then the Swifts may be a better choice as they are still staggered rates.
The RCEs have the lowest drop AFAIK (1 inch), but I don't think the swifts are much more if any.
