RCE Bronze numbers are comparable to the yellows, correct?

This taken from TiC's site

Swift R-specs
"Rates:
Front: Progressive with a final rate of 5K (280lbs)
Rear: Progressive with a final rate of 4.5K (252lbs)"

so is the " 285F/275R" still correct?

Did you read Post #14?
Things perhaps have changed and TIC has yet to update their website.
The Swift numbers are straight from Swift.

I'm looking for springs, thanks for this info.

The crucial racing drops are wrong, according to their website.
Drop front is 12.5mm, 9.0mm rear on the STI.

285/275 is correct. Don't know where the others came from as we have known the rates since we tested them for Swift a couple years ago.

I PM'd Racecomp the same question and they also said the drop was ~20mm front and rear which I think is too low for my winter driving.
