08+ Lancer Specific Springs

There is a local guy selling a set of S-Techs new in box for $100.

Catch is, they're listed for 2008-present lancers.

Anyone running lancer springs on their ralliart? I'm assuming the spring rates would be a little less?

The tein website lists the same spring rates for both the lancer and ralliart part number...

Tein's website says the spring rate is the same.
The part number is different. So they may be minor differences in the design or spring coil. I would say pass unless you can find someone who did the install before you and can confirm its the same.

They should fit and the rate should be fine - the weight difference of the cars is neglible...

The different part numbers does concern me too though...

honestly i thought springs for the Eibach pro kit springs were the same for both GTS and Ralliarts but they are not.

It was stated that the spring rates are different; but the springs are the same design.

Hopefully someone on the form can confirm that the Teins are the same or not. Good price though.
