I had a set of the Eibach pro's on my last car they handled good the ride was decent and they didn't screw my camber all up like the set of H&R springs I had did. I have never used Tein Springs so its hard to compare to them but I would recomend the Eibach pro springs and wouldn't mind using them on my new Evo.

hey BLKRalliart04, what's the word on those springs, I'm thinking of picking some up myself, if you could post a pic or give a quick review it would be great.

I already got myself a deal on some Tein S techs.....
I'll tell you guys about it and take some pics of it so you guys can see. I think the Tein's drop the car about 2" so some of you might not like it.

From what I understand, the RalliArt is underdamped. Putting on higher rate springs is only going to amplify the handling problems. I talked to a couple of guys who race. They recommend the sleeve coilover kits with upgraded struts. But tuning them can be a problem if you don't know what your doing.

The easiest route would be to go with pre-tuned Tein coilovers (Basics). There is a guy selling them for a pretty good deal in the vendor section.

I just installed my TEIN S-tech last night on my Sportback Ralliart and it looks sick! and the handling improve alot (i have one of those 60lbs MTX 9500 series subs on the back and the handling got worst but now is way better) i tookr the car for a drive last night when i got done and it handles like a different car (better) the drop was perfect to close the gap all the way arround.

evil I have an RA SPortback,did it help cut down on the rear roll? That's my big concern, I was going to add the sway bar and perches and possibly the tie bar as well, but.... how is the ride quality on those springs, i have a family to ride around with so a hard ride is not what i want.
