I'm looking at these three springs. I want to ride that's similar to stock and also one that is going to be close to stock spring rate or an improvement. I really was sold on eibach Pro kit but spoon and Swift were brought up when I was having a conversation on the phone with evasive Motorsports they said Swift is the way to go.

Also what can I expect for my Camber to be sitting at in the front? Stalk I believe is negative one I heard that it'll probably be sitting around -1.5 which is really good for me. I heard the rear though will be a problem and cause understeer and will be sitting around -2.0 to -2.5.

I was going to get eibach or SPC rear camber control arms just want to make sure that's not going to make the tow impossible to adjust. Any input is greatly appreciated!

share photos and Alignment Sheets if you guys have them as it will help!

Thanks

Our best sellers are Swift but usually out of stock. Spoon and Eibach a tie but Spoon have to deal with tariffs now..

We paired our system with SPC camber arms in the rear and whiteline ball joints in the front.

We got them all!

Which Springs ride better spoon Swifter eibach? Also if I go with rear camber arms from SPC then I don't need to worry about adding anything else for toe adjustment Factory tow adjustment will be fine? I assume the ball joints in the front are for taller adjustment for bump steer? Let me know prices and which parts would work best. I'm on the fence about deciding which Springs

EVERYBODY has a different opinion, hard to say, if you started a poll I'm sure it wouldn't skew one way or the other as they're all popular and people swear by them..

I like Swift personally, Spoon is great too, but lot of people factor in the stance and price.. For the rears don't need anything other than SPC, don't need anything for the front with Springs.

For stock ride quality and a drop enough to minimize the fender tire gap, Spoon.
Eibach Pro kit offers a very similar drop and ride quality.
I went with Spoon after driving my friend’s CTR on his.
Initially I was set on Eibach Sportline, but that is a very aggressive drop for a daily driver.
Swifts I’ve read are stiff.

I'm currently on spoons. I LOVE their ride on 265/35's..... If I were to do it again (which I might ....pending a few factors) I'd just buy RSR coilovers as they are a good BFB setup. They keep all active features, height adjustability, and so on - Lowering springs are just not it for me. I'm a fan of the aggressive fitment, but I hate panel contact, I still have some learning to do... lol

I went with the Eibach pro kit, and 15mm spacers and the car looks great, and didn't feel that much different from stock. I'm wasn't sure about the swift since they have a uniform drop but often that leaves a little difference in wheel gap. The Spoon also had the weird rake (like oem) when I was buying springs so the Eibach seemed the best from a visual/mild change.

Eibach sport on stock wheels for now. Right around -2 camber all around with the front pins removed.

If stock is comfort/sport/R+
Eibach sport feels like sport/R+/R++

Thats what I have heard.

Based on this analogy My experience with my Spoons is

comfort+/Comfort/Sport

lol Definitely stops most bounce and slight softer. Very good springs

+1 for spoon.

To me they ride almost identical to stock, maybe even more comfortable but not sure if thats just my own preference. All I know is that it defintely isn't more uncomfortable. It doesn't drop as low as the others though, but if you daily drive your type R, then I think its better since it just gives it a slightly more aggresive look.

Also the new spoon springs fixed that raked look so you dont get that if you buy spoon springs now.
