So does the car Corner FLatter? I plan to lower front and back 1.5 inches, is that ok or will it upset the handling? Can I realign the car back to stock settings with these coilovers?
Thanks Again
Looking for a 1.7 Camber which I have NOW on my evo, the rest factory.

We are carrying the Omni Power coil overs too. We recently put them on our red shop car, the high horsepower one. The difference in ride quality is improved over stock I would say, not as harsh.
Not sure if it is just the fact that the car is lower or if these really corner even better than stock. The car feels flatter in a hard corner than it did before. I am impressed for the money.
We have them here and are selling the set of four for $700.
As a side note we also have the Tein springs for the EVO now, they drop the front 2" and the rear .9". Car looks really good like this, they are $159.
Also have the Tein Superstreet Dampers for $1075.

I want the 9K front and 7K rear. Can you align the car properly with them? I mean without camber plates?
There is a place that corner balances right by my house, should I do it with me in the car??

I had my car aligned with these coilovers and I had it set to stock settings. The mechanic had a hard time findig the settings. He ended up calling Mitsubishi direct. My car drives straight as an arrow now.

his car was pulling left (as stated in an ealier post) because alignments usually are out of whack after installing suspension components...
BTW, I'm thinking about getting these also. Keep the reviews coming! Anyone in Michigan have these? the streets are poorly maintained here, so worried about ride quality.

I'm debating whether to get these or the Hotchkis springs. I just want to know what the spring rates on these are and by how much can you lower and raise them. I'd like to get rid of that stock body roll but not wear out my stock shocks too quick with lowering springs.
jk addict,
Just moved to Lansing and you are right, the streets are pretty crappy here.

I've had these for about a month now and I'm actually going back to the stock setup because here in Denver the streets are so terribly rough. Don't get me wrong though, they handle great and would be great for the track or autox. Also, with a sway bar you get some pretty good power oversteer so I don't want to bash them but where I live, 10K and 8K rates on a daily driver is too much.

The Omni coil overs are a direct bolt in for stock. The alignment should not really be effected. The ride height is what is adjustable and once you have it set even the car should travel down the road perfectly.

Hey, what are the proper settings for these coilovers for an 03 Evo? Is the camber adjustable or is it fixed? What is teh proper ride height adjustment not so much for looks but for proper handling? Thanks
