CBRD and RCE/GTWORX bring you RCE evo springs..

here you go guys..

the first set we have done...

we work closely with Myles and the guys from RCE on projects and development. Myles asked us to give him feedback on his new lowering springs.

Well, here is an install and review...

First is the installation...

Pics of the procedure and some notes... The springs fit perfect, aside of the lettering on the fronts being upside down... which I could care less about hee he..

Hope you enjoy...

It looks like everything went well. I love the stance that the GTWORX springs give the Evo. The gap is perfect. I'm glad the developed this spring with our thoughts in mind! I can't wait to get mine ordered and installed.

guys...

im VERY VERY impressed by the ride and handling characteristics of the these springs..

they are firm... but compliant... gone is the porpoising (front to rear rocking) i have experienced with many other brands...

The side to side transitions take effect without the normal "rollover and then set"... its a more direct feeling spring...

We will be using MANY more of these springs

cheers

Just wondering if you've installed any Swift springs on customers cars before and how they compare to the GTWORX. Looks about the same, as far as ride height goes, between the two. I just installed some Swifts and they are quite a bit stiffer I guess (wife doesn't like it so she complains about the ride more now,lol) so I might be interested in these if they ride better.

Thanks to Chad and CBRD for hookin me up with these awesome springs! Now if only my clamps on my Buschur exhaust would hold together I would be really happy. F'N P O S! Oh yeah by the way Chad threw a Megan Racing (made in china) o2 housing on my car also and made 11 more ponies.

I am so glad I don't live where it snows so I don't have to run crappy all-season tires.
