^^ like for real.. im not sure what it is.. but the those tein springs dont even look like you have a drop. maybe its the rim/tire size. im not sure. but dang, you still have a few inches of wheel gap..

car looks great, love the combo. but i would say you need another inch or two drop.. im sure its the wheel/tire combo that makes it looks a like that, it looks GOOD, but doesnt look dropped. maybe another inch on the rimes or up a little bigger on tires..

im definatelly likeing the newer lancers with drops, minivan ride height really bothers me.. lol

love your lancer kiioichy_EvoII, looks really good

I know what you mean really, I'm a little bothered right now with the tire being a little big but I needed like that for the streets here in PR. Maybe I should try to take a better photo cause I took it standing still and my height is 6 feet. Also the gap between the fender and the tire is about 2 fingers, that's still healthy for the suspension and will give it enough space to travel. I don't think I can go lower than that.

Thanks for the compliments

The RRM v2 springs sound good but if you went to check alignment and it was off iono if i want to get them i mean.. i would want nothing wrong with my car ever even slightest bit... some one give me some names of springs that are just like a perfect 1 inch drop all around with no bumpy ride and keeps ur wheels aligned well... thanks

this may be a little off topic, but i figure this would be a good place to ask...

do any of you guys run aftermarket shocks with your springs setup? i remember when shocks were a popular item (back in early 2000s). possibly a more affordable substitute for coils?

goin back to the topic, imo the rrm's and works springs are pretty nice. the drops look just enough without looking overly aggressive.

on the other hand, the eibachs look pretty good too, but they are the industry standard when it comes to springs so no surprise there.

when i get the money, i'll probably be getting the rrms or works. loving the flat black gts rims!!

but, where on earth did you find the mud/splash guards for the GTS body? Or did you mod the DE ones?
