I know GTS springs will work, but thats a 300lb difference in weight between the RA and GTS. They will probably sag extra.

Lol, nice. Don't hold down the left paddleshift for too long though it doubles as the ejection seat as well.

I currently have the GTS specific lowering springs in the car now, ride height is perfect but the shocks cannot control the extra stiffness so there is plenty of undue bounce. Wait for the specific ones for the RA.

Why wouldnt the Eibach Pro Kit work?
They only lower 1in-1.5in
the RA is about 300lbs more than the GTS.

so there wouldnt be much extra sag...

right..?

Why not invest in the stock market in the mean time? Buy low sell high! Probably can't get much worse than it is now... probably.

just be patient. do things right the first time so you dont end up spending more cash then you expect.

depends on what you describe as comfortable.

Fitting on the car and working properly are two very different things. Yes, they will fit but the GTS is not the same as the Ralliart and stock they have 2 different suspension set-ups, so why would you even think they'd be properly set-up for the Ralliart? One it front-drive, the other is AWD. They weigh several hundred pounds different with that weight distributed differently...
