Cool Powertrix Coilovers with swift springs

Anyone running with Swift Springs (10k/7K) that upgraded from (9k/6k). Looking for input as to the feel in difference? IMO the 9k/6k are way too soft. And since I am going to up to 10/7k I am just looking for some opinions from people that are familiar with this setup.

Dang no one????
How about this does anyone else atleast feel like the stock stance/powertrix 9k/6k springs are too soft (i.e they have too much body roll and compress too much on some turns and some bumps)?

Thanks paimon. Yeah im running PT sways front and rear as well and going to be ordering myself some swift springs. I'm just curious what makes them so superior to the stock chinese/taiwanese springs in the powertrix/stance coilovers since both are still not progressive rate springs.

I've tried 10k/7k and was running 11k/8k before the car went into the garage for an extended stay.

I mean there's not much to explain, the ride gets stiffer and body roll is reduced. lol.

If it's just a street car I wouldn't see much point to increasing spring rate though.
