Pretty much all springs help blow out the stock set, go coil-over and do it right. You can still have a soft ride if you choose the proper spring rate.

I just orded some Tein S-Tech springs after riding with a friend in his Protege and the ride was nice and wheels flush. In the past on other cars I have had the Road Race Motorsports and Eibach Pro Kit springs with no issues or complaints. I like to try new things so it was time for Tein's.

I have not had any grinding issues in my car where I live or work and even with a 2 inch drop I don't think I will have any in my area. I will let everyone know how it goes with the Tein S-Tech springs.

I got rrm springs because I believe they were the only choice when I bought them. I do scrape on dips and driveways if I don't take it at an angle. Other than that, haven't had any problems. Can't compare to others since I've never been in another ralliart.

I think I'll go with the v2 RRM springs, the stance looks great from pics I've found. Still a toss up between Swifts and RRM's.

Has anyone had their dealer give them a problem just because they have springs? With my old car, I had one Subaru dealer try to tell me that I've totally upset the drivetrain in my car with a set of official STI springs and that they're a big no-no. Not sure how Mitsubishi dealers are with respect to simple mods like that.
