Ebay LO brand lowering springs install question

[jimtash]

Purchased a set of these to replace a broken rear Eibach and have a question about which way the coils should go. This is for the rear as I'm keeping the front Eibachs on. Anyway I installed these with the tighter coils up like the Eibachs even though the painted mark is upside down on the spring. Is this going to affect anything?

These springs have 9 coils compared to the Eibach's 7 BTW.

It doesn't matter as long as you don't install them sideways.

I also saw those springs. How do they ride? And what struts are you using?

I'm only using them on the rear. The front still has Eibachs. Rides pretty good with Koni's up front and Tokico's in the back. Not harsh at all.

Also installed new front wheel bearings and those made a difference as well. Steering is quicker, tighter, and smoother.
