What happens? Is the front or the back to low? They seem to be the same circumference and fit the struts well.

I cant find anything via a search on this subject.

Thanks.

Paul, my setup is 1g springs all the way around, and 1g struts on gvr4 tops, and my back sits too low. so i guess if you had a 1g rear strut and you put it next to the evo strut, you could use the relation of where the spring perch is on each one to give you that answer.
 

Rears are going to sit too low. In addition the DSM rear springs are a little wider than the Evo 8/9 perch.

FWIW I put Evo Espelir ASD springs on in the front and left the back with the stock Evo8 springs. This lowers the front about 1" and keeps the back right where it should be. It also gets you back to stiffer springs in the front and less stiff in the back which is "normal" for the GVR4.
