Best shocks for SWIFT Spec R for ride quality?
The swifts have a higher final rate and the "progressive" initial rate is somehow mainly used for preload. The rates are like 40lb inch more in the rear and higher in the front.
There's a thread on here where someone was smack talking them but using incorrect info.
That being said, it would be worth trying the eibach's first. Changing springs is not very hard, and you can rent a spring compressor cheaply.

I'm actually about to put on new shocks but was quoted about $150 to have it done...I'd rather save the money and put it toward another part if I can do the job myself?
Whaddya think?

$150 to remove all 4 old shocks and springs then install all 4 new shocks and work vs sounds like a pretty good deal!!!
If you have no experience in taking apart the suspension its better to have someone do it, unless you have a friend who has to help. The fronts can be tricky, rear is fairly easy.
Wait..what??? Does this require the superhuman mechanic hand strength of an industrial grade powerlifter on a case of Red Bull or can normal guy who doesn't want to waste money on mechanic bills when he can do it himself guy be able to do it?
