Royal Wheel & Tire in Arlington and no I didn't get an alignment yet since I got them done today but so far the car is not pulling to either side at all. The rear tires did camber in a little which i expected and wanted. The ride handles close to the sport suspension on the the G37 coupe. Now I have to be very wary of pot holes and bumps on the road with the 30/35 tires and swift spring combo

That doesn't sound right. Try the following:
1. Search the the forum for X springs and compare how much others have dropped. The Swift springs are linear so it shouldn't drop too much lower.
2. Check the box to make sure you received the correct item number.
3. Then I'd try to verify if they were installed correctly.
The Swift website shows the X should drop 1.3" in the front and 1.00" in the back. Part #4N907.

I am still puzzled why the drop is so off, I will contact him and see what he tells me

Well if you want to be accurate before it was 28.56" and now it is 27.81 so yeah it dropped about 3/4" which is still not as much as the 1" they are rated for...only thing i don't like is there is a 1" difference from front to rear
