Springs will be up inside your wheel well, not sure why the look of the springs would matter.

But either one will be great over your stock springs.

What you need to determine is what spring rate you are looking for, and then go from there.

I'm guessing he means which drop will look the best.

You should search the topic this has been reviewed many times. Just telling you before someone starts getting on your case for not searching.

i like my swifts over the stock springs, but they are kind of bouncy and soft in the turns. i have some RCEs in the box here, but i won't be putting them on until i get the ohlins struts.
