I purchased some Koni spings from a member on here and I went to install them today. After getting one of them out I compared to stock springs to the Konis and they are the same height. I contacted the PO and he said it has JCW springs on it already.

Will the Konis lower my car anymore than what I have on there? I don't want to swap everything out if its going to be the same height. Does anyone recognize the springs on there now? I thought JCW springs would only lower it .5" and the Konis are supposed to drop it 30mm. Please help me!!



This is the current height of the car

 

In the picture it looks like the Konis are about 15mm shorter than the JCW. If the JCW already drop it 0.5" ~ 12.5mm then it wouldn't be a significant drop. Just a centimeter or so.

 

The JCWs look lower to me but I read online that JCWs are red so I don't know what these are.

 

I'm not an expert, however the Koni spring looks to be a thinner spring (softer) and therefore will compress more... just my 2 cents.
Unless you have the actual spring specs or details for research, I would just throw one on and see.

 

Well I threw the fronts on since I already had one strut out and it didn't do a damn thing :Banghead:

 

Ok rears went down like I thought they would but the front is .5 higher than the back. Should I have taken out the bumpstops?
