Well he said he was getting Eibach springs so it would seem the mystery is solved.

Best first performance upgrade for the RA in terms of handling...tires. Getting ready to pull the trigger on a set of Hankooks, after the raod trip in a couple of weeks. Driving from TX to OH then to CO then back to TX. Looking at nearly 5,000 miles in one month. Tires should be close to done by then.

The Eibach Pro lowering springs drop the RA 1.2 inches front and rear. I have not been able to find the spring rate, but 1.2 inches is a pretty mild drop which is likely to reduce body roll while maintaining a fairly decent ride.

Personally, I am looking at a good set of coil-overs. Lancer shop has the KW Variant 2 Coilover kit for $1,637.95. Does anyone know if lancer shop offers a military discount?

The dude with the white sport back got the Ralliart branded strut bar for 700$. Best part of it is he has the injen noise maker CAI and its in the way and forces the bar up so hes gonna have issues hahaha!

The spring rates will need to be a good bit higher to manage a 1.2 inch drop. Eibachs generally have very mild spring rate increases.
