Thumbs up Espelir ASD Springs Arrived

Before pulling the trigger to purchase these Espelir springs, I did extensive research on this forum. I know that AP1 & AP2 suspension should be interchangeable. With that said, after looking at small label on the Espelir box, I realized that it stated AP1. Shouldn't it say AP1 & AP2?

I scheduled for an appointment to slap these on for this Saturday and want to make sure that everything will go according to plan...

Can't imagine why there would be any difference. Spring rates may have change a little for the AP2 but that would not necessarily mean that Espelir made any changes.

you'll be ok, just make sure they put the springs with more coils at one end on the rear of the car.

there is one thing about these springs, they dont seem to look exactly the same, i have these on my car and my front has a minor drop while the rear is pretty dumped, but i've seen other people with the same springs and they're pretty even front and back

we checked, both springs are installed correctly, too.

did you preload the suspension? Mine has a perfectly even drop.

seems like those that didnt "pre-load" the suspension may have that awkward look
