Whats up guys

I was looking at Eibach's site for new springs for my coupe cuz I was obviously looking to lower it. But in the description for the springs it says "1.4 in. front & 1.0 in. back". Now, my question is shouldn't both the front and abck be the same size? Or is this how it's supposed to be?

Thanks in advance guys.

How its supposed to be. Wheel gap is bigger in the front, just look at your Coupe as it is now, you'll see it.

speaking of the Eibach springs, my front driver side is lower then my front passenger side. people said its sometimes like that but then when they settle in it'll all be even. Its been over a month, how much longer should it be?

damn dude i drove on mine for 1000 miles in 2 weeks and got it aligned yesterday. Are you shure you turned the springs all the way to the stops on the lower side of the strut ? That is the only reason i can think of why it is like that. :gotme

ya I made sure I lined it up perfectly. Its not a huge difference but on one side I can barely fit 2 fingers (sort of got to turn my hand) and on the other side I fit 2 fingers fine (not super tight). so idk, maybe it's still settling in. I havent gotten an alignment yet.

This is going to sound weird but all of my cars/trucks/have always sat a little to one side. I dont know if its because of more stress on suspension on the side I normally sit in or what but I see it a little in my coupe too.
