it would be better if you posted a pic of the spring between the wheel and the fender?

ill get some tomorrow. the fronts have a couple dead coils at the top, and the rears do not. i put them on without a compressor so they are a good bit shorter than stock.

Either the suspension techniques or the Eibach prokit. Both were progressive and both were 1" lowering and both were black. gotta get them tested to know. The ST were 120/85F and 80R while the Eibach's were 171/?F and 100R

Doesn't Eibach always print "Eibach" on there springs? I thought they were supposed to be red?
