They aren't coilovers per-se. The rears are Coil-over-strut design but not called coilovers like the ones everybody knows. The fronts are McPherson Struts.

The springs are a different spring to regular Lancers, resulting in a higher ride height for the regular models. From memory the spring rate is stiffer, and the taper is different.

That's about it. :)

Cheers man, but after reading that info i'll probably have to give them away! :-) haha

The strut's should be good with lowered springs though yeah? Better than oem Lancer?

I'm pretty sure the struts are the same actually. Can't confirm though.

Hmmm.... sounds interesting.....

So they aren't coilovers, but they give our Lancers Ralliart suspension? Is that right?

And a higher but stiffer ride than the normal ES springs and shocks huh? Will they fit the ES? :)

If price is lower than springs, i might consider :P

It is stock Ralliart suspension.

It is higher and firmer, yes.

I can not confirm if they fit the regular Lancer range. I heard that the base of the rear struts might be different, but I can't confirm.

To me, the look like they will fit. I would say it more than likely would. I have had a close look to compare, but never tried to fir them up.

But I can't confirm a definite yes or no. Worth a shot IMO.

Hmmm..... decisions decisions.....

Because I'm not installing it (I have no clue how to install springs and shocks)...... it wouldn't be worth me buying these, then having them not fit, and having to pay labour for the time used.

I think I'm going to have to back out here mate. SOrry about that.

Good luck with your sale though :)
