Question When do the RCE springs come out?

Does anyone know when the RCE springs come out? I have not heard much about them, but do you guys think they will be better then the Cobb or Prodrive springs?

Did you see this? RCE Yellows have been out for some time. The new spring is expected shortly, pre-orders are being taken now. No "impressions" exist because no one here except the RCE folks have tried them. Will they be better than XYZ spring? That depends on how you define sucess. There is no single right answer. They will be taller than the current RCE spring which is good as it gives the front a bit more much needed travel for public-road driven STIs. More comments in the other thread, please come join the party.

everyone's driving style and purposes are different so you'll have to read why people like a particular spring. I read about how the current yellow RCE's were the best stock replacement and now I feel that they aren't as they're more for the person who tracks their car and doesn't care about ride comfort at all.

I hear the prodrives are a much better match for this so I may try them out soon or just go back to stocks.

you need to ask yourself what you prefer out of your car and what you plan on doing with it before just buying springs.

I've put my pre-order in for the black springs. While there is a lot of discussion about STi's, lowering, bumpstops, etc, I want something a little stiffer with only a slight drop.

I plan on trimming the front bumpstops as well.
