RalliTEK 1" Rear Lift Springs 2008-2014 WRX / 2008-2014 STI | 1" Lift | Rear Suspension Springs
Overview
The RalliTEK 1" Rear Lift Springs are designed specifically for the 2008-2014 Subaru WRX and WRX STI models, providing a reliable and effective way to increase rear ride height and ground clearance. These springs are ideal for Subaru enthusiasts looking to fit larger off-road tires or improve their vehicle’s capability on rough terrain without sacrificing on-road comfort. Whether you’re tackling snow, dirt trails, or simply want a more aggressive stance, these lift springs offer a practical solution tailored to Subaru’s unique suspension geometry.
Engineered with proprietary dual-rate linear spring technology, RalliTEK’s lift springs balance off-road performance with on-road refinement. The springs are constructed from high chromium spring steel and finished with a durable blue powdercoat over a zinc-enriched primer to resist corrosion and wear. This thoughtful design ensures longevity and consistent performance, making them a standout choice for Subaru owners who demand both durability and ride quality.
Installing these lift springs results in approximately 1 inch of lift, improving approach and departure angles while allowing for larger tires up to 215/70-15 or 215/65-16. The 20% stiffer spring rate compared to OEM enhances handling responsiveness and vehicle stability, especially in challenging driving conditions. Importantly, the springs maintain Subaru’s signature plush ride quality, so daily driving comfort is preserved alongside improved off-road capability.
