Default Tein S-tech Question

I got a set of Tein S-techs and was just wondering which ones are the front and which are the rears.

on two springs has a "F" before the serial/part number printed on the springs and the other two have a "R". So i assume the F = front and R = rear ???

The serial/part number looks something like this ----> F-xxxxx-xxx xxx and R-xxxxx-xxx xxx

I was just wondering and making sure that i have the right springs on the right side.
if not then i'll have to redo them.

Thanks, in advance.

you got it right, the ones with the f's are the fronts and the r's are the rears

you can always jsut LOOK at the springs... the front and rear springs are different ends... just like stock!
the end of the coil is cut flat on one and the other is just cut straight 90degree.

very easy to just match the spring ends up when you remove the one stock spring. thats what i did

i love how they ride too...

i kinda want a lower drop, i'ma roll on these for awhile and get some coilovers..

maybe PIC or K-sport..

i have EG S-techs by the way, so the spring rates are a lil different.
i only picked these up for $100 brand new in box from a local.
