Default FS: Swift Sport Mach Springs Legacy GT Sedan 05-06 $160 local pickup

I doubt anyone here wants these (or can even use them), but I figured I'd give it a shot. I'm putting these up on LegacyGT.com in a week or so.

I'm selling my Swift Springs. I recently upgraded to Tein Flex Coilovers. You can read my thoughts here if you wish. While I am definitely happier with the coilovers compared with the springs, I still liked these springs for the price. I think these would work great on the street with upgraded struts.

I experienced a more significant drop than advertised. Advertised is -25mm (-0.98 in) in the front, and -15mm (-0.59 in) in the rear, but I think its more like -1.5 inches front and -1 inch in the rear. Spring rates are 4.3kg/mm front, 6.6kg/mm rear. I had these springs on my car for about 10 months, putting about 10k miles and around 10 autocross events on them. Other than being dirty and some scuffed paint, they seem to be in good working order.

These are specific to the 05-06 sedan (I assume 07 also). These aren't recommended for wagons, Outbacks, previous generation Legacys, Outbacks or Bajas.

The original instructions are not included Unless they magically show up between now and the sale. But the stickers are still in the box (ooh, wow, I know!). Anyway, anyone familiar with swaping springs shouldn't have an issue.

Price is $200 shipped. No extra for paypal fees. They are currently still on my stock struts right now, but I can take them off and they would be ready for sale soon. I am not interested in selling the stock shocks.
