Default Eibach ERS Spring Length

Currently running:

Eibach ERS Front: 800.250.400
Eibach ERS Rear: 700.250.500

I wish to put the 500lb springs in the front and purchase 600lb springs for the rear.
With the swap, will there be any problems running a 7" length spring versus an 8" spring which is currently on the Integra right now? I don't plan on riding that low, the vehicle is lowered 1.5" from a stock Integra.

I don't understand why an 8" front spring and 7" rear spring was in the kit, I figured it would be 7" all around.

Unless you specify otherwise, those are the standard lengths for Civics & Integras. They allow both ends of the vehicle to have a more equal range of ride height adjustment...

Pain in the *** that http://www.groundcontrolstore.com doesn't ship to Canada. I have to either ship it to a post office in the states and cross the border to pick them up! Or go through a vendor who drop-ships

Any vendors ship to Canada?
