Eibach springs quick question

Hey guys i got a quick question that might sound stupid but i couldnt find any details about it anywhere.

I got springs that give it 1.5 drop in front and 1.3 in back..

Does it matter which springs go in back or front or do you jus install all of them anywhere.?


Thank you

Yes, it matters. The coil diameters are different. The pair with the larger coil diameter go in the back.

If a shop messes that up, they shouldn't be in business.

But you'll be alright, when you (or shop) takes out the current springs, its more than evident. As terry said, the diameters are different, and they can't be swapped.

On the coupe there is not way to mess it up.. I installed them myself and the rear one are very big and they dont go directly on the shock so.... really if the shop does not know ... go elsewhere!
Eibach!!! i love them! Nice drop not too much and nice riding quality
