aight so im still waiting for those damn teins..but lookin at their site they are still "in development" for ES and RalliArt...the only difference between the 2 coilovers from their chart is how much u can adjust and that the drop in the rear is slightly lower for the RalliArt..other than that the spring rates are the same for both the ES app and the RalliArt app...

question - would we be better off with the Ralliart app for a more aggressive drop? or is there a down side to using the ralliart app over the one thats designed for the lancer?

1 more thing..i dont know why they didnt also put GTS next to the ES for the part listing...how much more does the 2.4 weigh than 2.0? if its like a couple hundred then i can see why...and thatd also justify for me gettin the ralliart coilovers because while searchin before i posted this thread someone mentioned ud be in the clear using the ralliart coils but the spring rates were designed with the "300+" pounds of that tranny it uses in mind..while im 5spd

absolute

i'd just stick w/ the 08 ES ones instead of ralliart they wud probably make the ralliart a bit more expensive as well just bcuz its for the ralliart and that u can adjust it a bit more

btw im waiting on the tein coils as well =P i wish they'd hurry it up

I Am God

yea forreal...im gonna give them until like AT MOST the end of june..if not ima go megan's

absolute

megans u gotta cut rear wheel well for dampers and stuff =/ so no thx megan!

i heard if you just buy the tein springs that your shocks go out pretty fast was wondering if that is true?

I Am God

yea cuz the drop is so much..u can get aftermarket shocks from tirerack.com..also another possible issue is "coil slap" when the coils of the springs are hitting eachother...tein sells these rubber covers to stop the sounds....

but when combining the price of the tein springs, the camber bolts, and the after market shocks..ur better off investin a couple hundred bucks more for coilovers..it jus doesnt make sense

They are the OEM shocks. No aftermarket shocks available yet.

w/e i meant AM cuz theyre by KYB...and their supposed to a lil better than OEM, thats why i recommended gettin em wit tein coils cuz theyll actually last longer than the stock ones.
