Default H&R Eg Civic springs, Which ones are front?

I just picked up a set of Eg H&R sport springs and i need to know which ones are the front and which ones are the rear. They are marked in pairs as: KBA-Nr. 90 424 29 863 VA and the other pair is the KBA-Nr. 90 424 863 HA. Can some with these springs tell me which ones are front and which ones are the rear. thanks

the two that have evenly spaced coils and then a few coils at the top really close together should be the rears. the springs with evenly spaced coils throughout are the fronts. for H&Rs, if i remember correctly, when they're still in the box, from left to right, its: rear, front, front, rear. good luck with your install.

the longers ones go in the front, i think.

so does that mean the fronts are linear? cuz my h n r's are progressive for all 4.

I installed the springs and I just wanted to post this for future reference. I dont remember if HA or VA is front or rear however you can tell by this: Front springs are always flat on the top coil and rear springs are normally round on the top coil. Thanks for you help.

The front springs are thicker. The coils should be closer together also.
