spring question?

hey guys, i was just wondering if anyone has ever heard of or used springs made by ST (Spring Tech). If so, are they any good or do they give a ****ty ride? I was just wondering because they offer a better drop height than eibachs or progress springs. Anyone who has any info would be appreciated. thanx

Never heard of ST.

I'm guessing your wanting to go more for looks then performance if you want to go any lower then Eibach's or Progress with the consideration of Tein at about a 1.7" drop. If you go any lower I can almost imagine you'll have one of the bumpiest rides let alone a set of stressed out shocks. Think it over before you make your decision.

Good luck.

plus if you go with anything lower than the 1.5" drop you might even run into needing a camber kit which noone makes for the lancer yet...correct me if i am wrong though!

You are correct. I did forget to meantion that also. You will run into uneven tire wear and other minor problems without a camber kit and that much of a drop.

EDIT: I'm not aware of any camber kits out for the lancer either.
