As some of you know, I have to get of my Tein HR's....and I'm putting the stock suspension back in.

But, I can't seem to find any markings that would indicate the difference between the front and rear stock springs.

Are there markings somewhere?? are the front ones longer??

thanks for your help guys

I could be wrong, but the fronts should be heavier and stiffer, shouldn't they?

i know the spring rate is higher in the front....but any visual indications or differences???

Thinker coils. You should be able to tell by comparing them. The front is thicker. I'm at school right now, but when I get home I'll check for u. Pretty sure that the rear ones are longer too, I know my Eibach's and Tanabe's were longer in the rear.

Yeah, my Mugen's are longer in the rear as well...

The front spings are shorter and have a tighter coil than the rears.
