FWIW, I have Tein H-Tech sedan springs with stock struts on my 05 wagon and I couldn't be happier. The ride is comfortable - very close to stock, and the stance is perfect, IMO. They aren't going to wow you with a big jump in performance as the spring is still pretty soft, but if you want the look with a comfortable ride, then you should look at these.

i have the Swift wagon specific springs and really like the set up. i want to do more suspension stuff such as sway bars and chasis braces to make it a bit stiffer but the springs were a good improvement from stock and looks much better in my opinion as well.

I have the D-specs and I love them for street & track (Tanabe GF210 springs), but a word of caution: the struts are not wagon specific and will make your front camber go positive!! After installation I cranked the camber bolts all the way and only then got to zero deg.! I had to then add camber plates to make a difference (-2.75 deg max; still not enough for me on the track). I contacted Tokico USA last fall, and they were not aware of the wagon/sedan difference then... I don't know if they've come out with the correct struts since.
