When will these coils be available?
The second revised version should be arriving soon for final testing.
STANCE wants to make sure that the final product is 100% without any details over looked.
Factory shocks are already very short with limited suspension travel.
STANCE did not want to result to just shortening the dampers to accommodate the people that want to "slam" the cars, which would severely decrease the amount of travel, which would in turn hinder the performance and ride quality.

We also noticed that lowering the car after a certain point requires some attention to the sway bar endlinks.

Off topic....kinda.
This is another reason why after talking to SWIFT Racing springs - they are taking a bit more time to release the springs due to R&D and testing. FR-S does not have progressive bump stops like most subarus have, so bottoming out would be very harsh on these cars - another reason why you won't find SWIFT lowering springs going very low.
