Default Springs - which ones are which? (F&R)

Update: All sorted, the wider, shorter, non-bunched up ones are the fronts, and the taller, narrower ones with the bunched up end are the rears.

Need to send off some rear springs, and I'm just double checking to make sure I don't stuff up... which ones here are the rears? (i.e. 1st & 2nd or 3rd & 4th)



They're GC8 STI springs if it makes any difference. Looked on my car but can't see which one has the bunched-up coil end.

If they were the one's you purchased from me (not sure if they are or not) then they were just standard WRX springs, from my Club Spec Evo IV. Not sure if the STi's of that year had different springs.

Nah, your ones are on my car. Bought these over a year ago & apparently they don't fit.

Got it all sorted, thanks to anyone who looked. They're the longer ones with the bunched up end for anyone else wondering.

Just for future reference, which were the fronts, and which were the rears, just to make it easier for those doing research in the future.
