I currently have the Swift spec r springs on my evo 9 mr and i find the rear to be rather bouncy (too much travel on bumps)- does anyone have a recommendation on a spring that's a little more stiff?

Is GTWorx still around, do they still sell their performance focused lowering springs? Or are the swift r springs pretty much the replacement now?

I am thinking to buy a set of Tein S Tech Lowering Springs for my 2003 Mitsubishi Evolution 8 and running the factory 17x8 +38 wheels with 235/45/17 tires. What would be gaps in the front and rear? two fingers? Will the front tires rub the inner fender liners when you crank all the way to the right and left. Please advise.

Does anyone run Tein H-techs? Not S for Stylemaster which we have all seen 1000x times, but H for High Tech. They give less of a drop -1.4 up front and only -.3 in the rear for an VIII. I like the sound of that because the car looks like the front has higher gap then the back stock, but I am afraid of going too low with anything like the S-techs provide.

Or does anyone know of a spring that lowers no more than the Eibachs do, but provide a better looking raked look?

Look into the jdm Espelir ASD "street" springs I know @Lumpy Sticks has a bnib set for sale. It's the same springs I run in the picture above, they only lower the front 1inch and the rears .25 inches. If you look at my build thread you can see detailed pictures of the fitment and drop.
