Swift awd springs. No rubbing at all
The ride quality.... very harsh. Going over bumps makes me feel like something is going to break.
I've had many lowered cars. Springs, coilovers, ..... this is harsh
The harshness you feel is likely the struts as with mine.. I just had them recently installed. The springs themselves are not at much stiffer than stock, however the reduced travel of the suspension hitting bumps is very unsettling and as you described seems as though something may break.

My hero... in the sedan.. nice. I've done a few HPDE's with Z, but not my heavy *** sedan.. I'd really have to do some reinforcements to bring her out on the track. Props! nice set up as well.

Some great cars in here. Here is a last pic before I change over to a new winter set in a month or so.

I haven't taken off the rear bumper to check but I'm pretty sure they are double sided taped along with screws.

Great pictures - and I like the new wheels (and I'm still digging your old wheels ).

What should my first mod be? I was thinking about wrapping the roof in a glossy black, getting some Eibach springs, and some spacers. Performance wise Im saving up for an Indivia CBE and Takeda short ram intake. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

how apparent is the benefit of upgraded sway bars during everyday, city driving?

Very apparent, changes the whole feel of the car. Most noticeable mod I have done to my car.

What? Not LED bulbs and plastidip grille, trim, wheels, tires, windows, brake rotors, and license plate? Absurd!

But seriously, yes swaybars were more of a handling impact than my coilovers - I would probably do those first.
