I'm in a similar predicament except mine is between RRM and T1R.

All of them are getting good reviews so just go with your gut.

If you are deciding between a few sets of quality springs, the big question would be what sort of drop you want, as they will all probably be different. So I would make sure to find that out first and that should make the decision easier I think. =)

yeah I hear ya. I'm going through the same crisis.


It's a big price difference too. I wondering what the benefit is between coilovers and drop springs. If it just adjustment flexability then I'm gonna go with RRM for the meantime until HKS comes out with a HYPERMAX coilover set.

I feel like I'm biased in this, but I would say RRM without question. Tein seemed to make the springs for our car as an afterthought. Also, RRM's springs are designed for performance; Tein's seem to be designed to slam the car as much as possible. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe (can't remember if it is front or rear) the Teins drop one end of the car over 2 inches.

My opinion:

Tein for bling.
RRM for performance.

Even though their the lowest spring kit out now for the Ralliart, they werent as low as i thought they would be when i first let the lift down. Take a look at my pics on the show-n-shine forum and tell me whatca ya think.
