I think somewhere on the EVO coilover thread that the full traction arms were maybe not the best choice as the coilover have too much flex for the arms.

I just went back and read that as well. I'm sure the arms will still offer a bit more flex than stock. Was more interested in the better ride and better suspension geometry

Not just FT but TF too and any control arm that uses bonded rubber bushings. The flex that the EVO coil overs provide will blow them out.

I should have posted this along with my earlier post, my apologies. Thanks to Wayalife films for the video, this should help clarify "EVO spec'd"
