2009 RA spring question.

So sorry for the dumb question and I'm sure its a no but who knows. Are the 09+ RA springs and the GTS springs (stock) the same as the can be interchangeable? Prob not. But if by some chance they are, are the eibach gts springs good for the RA.

Again prob a no but who knows. Lol /flamesuiton

They are physically interchangeable, but the RA weighs several hundred pounds more. So, while aftermarket GTS springs will "fit", the spring rate will be too low for proper ride qualities, which leads to you hitting the bump stops even more often than the GTS would on the same springs.

If you only care about lowering the car, then it'll work as a stop gap solution until you blow the shocks or get a full coil-over system.

That's what I thought thanks. Lol I am always form over function so I don't like to do things (mostly) just for looks.
