if it was that easy then i think a lot of people would be doing that.. pretty sure the suspension is different between the evo and RA... although no one has yet to try this so we cant confirm this.. do you want to be the gineau pig?

Whenever someone says "HEY JUST SWAP IT WITH AN EVO " the best thing to do is go into that persons statistics and look at the threads they have started here on EvoM. That will give you a good idea as to whether or not they know what they are talking about.

If it is a vendor for a related type of part, they will probably have a good idea.

If its a moderator, you will probably get a good idea, or be pointed to something that will help you out.

I am sure the Tiens will be released by the end of summer some time, hopefully. By then I should be on wider wheels.

I would call Robi or Scott and see if they have completed their Ralliart kit. I rode in the first prototype 4B11T Ralliart in the country, which was loaned to Robi last year for development, and he had done some nice things on his prototype.

Cheers,
