Since I fitted yesterday the Tein Flex, I removed my stock coilovers with the Eibach springs.

At the moment a friend of mine wants only the Eibach springs in order to upgrade his setup, and I have also another friend who wants my previous OEM suspension with the OEM springs. The thing is that I have the OEM springs but I dont know if they are different (rears from the front).

In the eye they look the same. But are they the same rate? I need this info cause tomorrow I will fit the OEM springs on the OEM coilovers, so which one goes where is my question...?

Your prompt reply will be highly appreciated.

 

They are different.

 

This is my guess as well but how do I recognize which one goes where?

 

Not easy to tell - I guess you didn't mark them up when you took them off

 

even hard to tell when the eibachs are new...
we installed mine in the wrong places and found out by looking at the car-
real p.i.a.- had to pull them and change them around again!

 

Just found my OEM springs and I had them marked during that time, but could not remember! Lucky guy I am.

But anyway the front springs are slightly thicker than the rear ones. So there you go. This is how you can identify them.
