Thank you
Someone recommended the Bilsteins from an MR and that's great advice but you can also change the tire to something with a softer sidewall. Are most of the streets paved? I know when I go to Mexico I see streets that I would never drive my Evo on.

What do you all think about the TEIN SUPER STREET COILOVERS FOR my EVO VII RALLIART? one of my RALLIART coilovers is making alot of knocking noise when driving.

The streets are paved and the coilover makes noise on any road condition. I moved the shock from left to right to confirm that it was the Coilover( front ).

this is what i have in my car right now and i am very disappointed. it did'nt lower my car like the specs said. the rear still look stock and the front drop is about 1.5". i pick this spring because of the spring rate and the even drop(almost).instead i got the "rake" look. its been 3 weeks,already settled down and not going any more lower. i got it very cheap at lancershop.com. i ask them if i can do a return or exchange explaining all my problems but they said no. oh well...i guess i got what i've paid for. i am going to pull it out my car and burn it and send it back to lancershop.p.o.s.com.

Rear 1" Drop 275lb/in (270lb/in Stock)

I think so too. I asked someone about these and they told me that they weren't popular with evo's at all.
