Back to Jason8's question, can anyone comment on the ride quality, performance increase/decrease, amount of camber correction and how the stock struts will last with the Eibach springs???? Thanks

I don't know if I want that much because of tire wear issues and I do not autocross the car. Does anyone know if the Cusco Plates work with the stock struts and are there any opinion on the how much camber one could get away with with out having excess tire wear on the inside.
an alignment can't fix that???
how are those springs on our fine NJ roads?? and how does it handle now??? i really like those specs to the RSR titaniums..though it seems alittle aggressive for stock shocks..

One set of Ralliart springs are for the Coilovers the other set is for the Domestic setup that you can buy with out the struts and shocks.

What do you want to use your car for ? Springs over 350lbs are better for smooth roads/track. For the street. 250- 300lbs front and 300-350lbs rear would be a good start. Any higher and you will need to go coilovers. The stock sturts and shock wont like them any higher. You go for soft spring and bigger sway bars if you need a good street set up.

we can get the ralliart springs without the corresponding struts/shocks they offer? is that going to work just as well?

and yes, i'd like to find out who a vendor is as well for the ralliarts...

Tri-Bar,

I've emailed Tien USA and they've confirmed they H and S-Tech's are progressive rate.

hey guys, noob here. I want to lower my car mainly for appearance and ride quality. I wouldnt mind better handling out of some different springs, but i heard that mitsubishi is very strict on their warranty. Will Ralliart springs void the warranty of the car? also, which spring do you suggest to get that will make the sotck struts last the longest?
thanks
