I think this is the part number for my springs: 6049.140 and dont quote me on this as I might be wrong. I would have to check with ISS forged as they were the ones to order my springs. The owner of ISS Forged currently owns a 2008 Evo GSR.

its not big enough to make a difference. just like when you have a car full of people you may have an extra 2-300+ pounds in the car...you arent gonna damage your car because of an extra hundred pounds

Check the spring rates, no point in buying springs designed for the GTS if the springs are relatively tame compared to the stock Ralliart rates (assuming they're different of course).

i guess that since it changes all the strut, no only the spring, it must be the same result (or close) to any gts... my main concern is our tough winters here. will they still work great on ajustment years after years...

where do you order yours?

Do you still have the box from the Eibach's you bought? Just wondering what the part number is, since Im trying to figure out if the Eibach Pro-Kit for Evo X MR will fit a GTS. And if the part number you posted is correct, then that answers my questions

+1...that is an awesome drop. Would probably look killer with some 18x8 wheels.
