    Which are the springs that are about 2" in the front and 1" in the back give or take. I looked and looked and can't seem to find them. I guess that is how it is when you want something. I appreciate your help guys.

    Closest ones ive seen to those figures are the Eibach sportlines and the tein S-techs. Go to Autocityimports.com and they have em both. I could be wrong tho

    Tein just introduced their line of S Tech springs specifically for the 2008 lancer or 09. the front is 1.4 and rear 1. You can find them and many others at Speedcorps.com

    I have RRM v2 Grip Springs I got about a 2 inch drop in the front and a inch in the rear the gap used to be like 3.5 in the front and 1.5 in the rear, the front is now 1 inch and the rear gap is .5 they are awsome. See my thread in the custom RRM SPRINGS ROCK

    I'm not sure if RRM revised their GRIP springs but they are now 1.5 F and 1.4 B. we have such nasty wheel gap in the front of our cars 2" and 1" would be perfect.

    Does anyone who has the Eibach sportline springs have a pic so I can see how the drop looks? These seem like the best option for the drop i am looking for. Thanks

    Hey I have pic of the Eibachs Sportline Kit with both aftermarket rims and the stock rims...I personally feel these springs give the car a nice drop and the car grips nice on turns...goodluck making your decision

    I'm not sure how good of an idea it is but I figured I would ask anyways. What do you think about installing just the front lowering springs of any of the kits? since there is sucha difference in teh gap from front to back on our cars. Looks wise it would probably be perfect, but not sure how the handling or anything else would react. What do you guys think? I don't think it would be a good idea but just a question. Thanks
