Any spring made for the OZ will work on the RA. That said, there's already a nice set of coilover springs (just springs) for the RA made by Nex Tech. Check the vendor section.

Be careful with adjustable coil over springs on stock shocks. Go too low and the springs can be too short and will bounce around on the strut if it extends too far. Also your suspension travel will be too short and you will be bottoming out your suspension (not good for stock shocks). Another problem is that if you keep stock shocks those hard springs will have you bouncing around alot. If your roads lack bumps and pot holes you should be ok. I know all of this from experience. It can be embarrassing.

You're incorrect. The OZ's and Ralliarts come with the exact same springs from the factory (you can check part numbers.) Any OZ spring will work for the RA.

thank you otter. there seems to be a small difference in the springs, as the RA's springs show themselves to be about 1/2" lower. However, if you go to Tein.com and look up the s-tech springs, or SS coilover suspension, the part #s for the RA and OZ are the same.

If you want to present a request for new suspension options to a vendor, be sure to include that they're making this product for two vehicles.
