Face Visor Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Thanks for the compliments. I do like them, and the size is as big as I could go without getting into rolling, so that's good. Steve, yes they're hyper silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face Visor Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Any chance that you weighed the combo? No I didn't. I've heard the wheel in that size weighs just under 21 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teknik Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Im in the process of deciding what brand of springs to buy. I want it to ride nice. Any suggestions ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecBGuy Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 there are a lot of threads about springs and coils read up on them and decide. i had ion springs with oem blistens then switched to swift springs to go lower. i wanted coils but some people dont recommend unless i want to slam my car or take it to the tracks. it all depends on what look you want and also trial and error. most people seem to like swift with koni so if you want springs try looking into that set up.

NSFW Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Really? You guys are comparing TSW and Tenzo to Enkei? Sure, they might look similar, but LOL at any quality comparison Are you sure? Note that the Enkei Raijin is cast, and the TSW Nurburgring is forged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Catalyst. Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I'm happy with the ride on Swifts - setup on spec.B Bilsteins. They are even GF approved ride wise, which I believe equates to relatively smooth. I navigate some pretty bad roads post winter here and they seem to suck up typical bumps nicely for the height they run at. My spec.B [#163] Project Thread with Pictures Get CryoTuned!

teamchambers Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 http://i666.photobucket.com/albums/vv25/Teknik_SS/Picture005.jpg Looks good! What size tires are you running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Face Visor Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Are you sure? Note that the Enkei Raijin is cast, and the TSW Nurburgring is forged. Raijin is cast, but uses Enkeis MAT technology which apparently helps with strength and weight. They likely weigh more than comparable forged, but the strength should be good.

Face Visor Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 How do your swifts ride? What struts do you run? I've been running Swifts with SpecB Bilsteins for over 3 years. The ride is pretty good and the wife doesn't complain. My only complaint is hitting the bump stops occasionally because of the reduced travel - but such are the sacrifices of lowering a car.

BigTDogg MA Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Are you sure? Note that the Enkei Raijin is cast, and the TSW Nurburgring is forged. False. TSW Nurburgring is rotary forged, which is essentially the same as the Enkei MAT technology. The rim of the wheel is forged, the center and hub is still cast.
