Default OEM R vs. non-R springs

Just to clarify, ITR springs are about 20mm shorter than non-ITR Integra springs, is that correct?

Okay yeah I just wanted to confirm they were shorter. Someone else thought the springs were the same height but the ITR shock's perches were lower and if the springs were used on non-R shocks they wouldn't lowere a non-R Integra.

cool, I'm trying to even out my car's stance. I'm running my stock GS-R springs on Koni sport shocks right now, with the perches on the lowest perch settings. It rides great, and the front end's ride height looks pretty nice, but the rear looks pretty high (3-finger gap in back vs. 1 in front). So I was going to put some ITR rear springs in the back to try to even it out.

So anybody got some stock springs to sell?

No I don't want aftermarket springs. I like the ride of the stock springs, and plus I'm trying to do this for as little money as possible, as my car has 213K miles on it now and I'm not trying to spend much money on it as I'm trying to buy a house soon.

PM me an offer. I just cleaned the grease/dirt off of two of them today. The springs have about 30k on em I think and they look great once cleaned up.
