On every forum post I have saw on other cars they said great things about them. So much so that I bought a set but don't have them on my car yet.

I searched for months on reviews and such on Lexus, Subaru, BMW, Honda etc etc forums and I found the springs seem to make a huge amount of difference. As far as I know im the only person with BC's and Swift springs.

Swift is a very reputable spring, and IMO would be worth the extra cash. My buddy runs BC's with the Swift upgrade on his STI and loves them.

where are you guys finding these?

I went to BC's website and they don't list coilovers for the cavalier.

This is who I bought mine through. I joined up on NASIOC and contacted them. The Swift springs take a while because everything is special order.

What are the swift springs all about? They upgraded springs or something?

Swift is a one of the higher end spring companies out there. They have teamed up with BC and you can order the Swift springs already installed from BC. From my reading Swifts springs are ride much smoother and higher spring rates are not as harsh. BC springs are alright but some people say they offer a pretty harsh ride. Swifts are also lighter, have one less coil but the same length so it offers a smoother more linear ride.

Buddy just put some on his WRX, with the swift upgrade. It rides flawless.

I have 7k front and 5k rear.

I like it. Firm as can be but soaks up the little bumps.
