I remember this thread from when I first got my evo. I contacted GTWorx cause I wanted these RCE springs, but they were never available. I guess Im a little confused, how do the RCE springs differ from the GTWorx set, or are they the same?

Same. I can imagine that they were hard to get at times because they only are made in small batches. Worth that wait because IMHO, they most intelligently designed performance spring for the Evo.

Here's a pic of my Evo at Sears waiting to go on the alignment rack. It gives a decent idea of the stance with the GTWorx springs. Still about 1.5" of gap at both fenders. Perfect for my taste, and with as little wheel travel as the Evo has, I wouldn't lower it any further.
I'm already considering the Whiteline roll center correction kit to help maximize front grip.

I'm only 5 years late to the game, but I finally got a set installed. I have no idea how people replace all four springs in four hours (or less for some). With 7 years of road debris build up, a good fraction of the time was spent cleaning and repainting where rust had formed. Anyhow, they are installed. If its not raining tomorrow, I'll get an alignment done and test out the handling.

I haven't had a chance to push the GTWorx springs yet, so perhaps I'll find out I've been missing out on an entirely different level of handling, but I can say that the GTWorx do handle mild bumps as good or better than the stock springs. Bigger bumps are definitely translated more to the passengers than with the stock springs. Overall, the DD aspect of the GTWorx springs seem very good.

Im thinking my rear struts are done because I replaced my fornt struts with Bilstein HD's and it gave much more wheel gap then I had before and right now my car sits lower in the rear than yours does.
