ES Ground Control

I did a search for my answer for this topic, and I couldn't seem to find one. Also, I couldn't look through people's mods with the registry being down. So I am just gonna askl my question here.

Does anyone have the ground control coilovers on an ES Lancer? Will this even work? Does Ground Control make the coilovers for an ES?

Also, if anyone has them on an ES or any other US Lancer let me know what you think please. It will be very much appreciated.

for the money they work ok but if you have stock rear shocks the ride will be bouncy .I do have an ES . But for the money I would save it for the Tein SS kit .Take the money you have Know and go buy rrm rear sway bare kit $209 of the best mony I have spent to get this ting to turn hands down.

Ground Control would be wonderful if only sombody made decent shocks fo the Lancer. For now, I highly suggest going with the Tein kit, which WILL fit the ES

Only downside to the tein kit is the cost...

I have the Ground Control coils and love them. Adjustability that just springs won't allow. Eibach springs. And it's not as costly as the Tein SS kit.

Ghostrider, do you notice the extra bouncy feel that urban was talking about? Also, doesn't tokico make shocks for the lancer... How much do they run for a set?

Also, anyone heard of skunk2 coilovers? Any good?

Are they in fairly good shape? Shocks aren't blown or anything?
