Oo, I forgot to add that the 08 Lancer ES shares the same rear pads as the Ralliart. I'll add that to the above posts. As a warning to ES owners, if you intend to order rear pads, do so early. I'm finding that nobody keeps them in stock, so you have to wait awhile to get them.
For whatever reason, the GTS doesn't have the same rear caliper as the ES, so that should be noted. The rear Hawk pads listed above won't work on the GTS.

Tein does not make 2008 springs. But you can slap the OZ/RA versions on your car and they work.
Because you're putting on springs from a different car, I don't know about the bumpstops. I would think so, since I cut them when I put the Tein S-techs on my 2002 Lancer.

Not sure on rubbing with such a big wheel. The Teins do have an aggressive drop.
Yes, you'd cut the bumpstops which also means you'd lose the dust covers.

Ok so I have narrowed it down to the rrm and the works spring kits. Not sure which one to go with. I've heard from a few people that the rrm kit doesn't really seem to add much drop in the front, just the back regardless of what rrm says. Is this true? Which one should I go with?

well... I installed my RRM GRIP v2 front springs this past Saturday.... and after 80+ miles of hard driving in the mountains.... my front end is sitting at the same height that I see in Blacksheep's pictures, and he has WORKS springs.
I need to double check that I seated the springs properly before I make any assumptions on the height drop.

As on my other posts, I have mentioned I have a 09' Lancer ES Sport and I want to modify it to be a beautiful, but yet dangerous street machine. Im am not rich so I'll be buying in pieces. Im not to familiar with suspensions so Im wondering what would be the best purchases for my Lancer. Which one I should buy first etc.... Thanks in advance!

Then we will be performing extensive track testing on-site here at Infineon Raceway (aka Sears Point).
Once we are satisfied with the design and valving, we should begin production this spring/summer.
If you are interested in them, just email sales@worksmotorsports.com to put your name on the waiting list so you'll be the first to be contacted.
Pricing has not been set yet due to finalizing the design but we are aiming to bring you the best value possible.
