I ordered directly from BC, since the prices are the same everywhere. They had them shipped out the next business day.

Did you keep the standard spring rates? I'm going to be doing primarily street driving.

What about swift spring upgrade? Not sure the benefits of these springs.

The rates on the BCs are double the stock rates. They are almost identical to the ACR. Pull out some dampening (15 clicks or dead middle) and the ride is similar to stock if you have a low mileage car. I run them 8 clicks from full hard on my Gen5 and love them!

That's right on about where I run mine. They're night and day better than stock, IMO.

100%. I took mine through our local GP track (lol, aka back roads to the lake) and I cannot believe how fast the Gen5 is at 50% effort. I cannot wait to track this thing!

I would keep checking with RSI, they tend to take a long time to ship. In my case and others on this and other forums.....never:furious:

I ordered straight from BC and went with the Swift upgrade. The Swift springs are just a higher quality spring, there are a couple Youtube videos explaining the key points. I asked about stock spring rates and they said they don't make springs with rates that low, so the lowest they could go was inline with ACR rates. I have my dampening set on the softer side and love the ride.
