so i picked up a second hand set of Whiteline springs for a member of Ozliberty, no problems got deliverred very good to deal with and all that but when i got the springs installed it brang the front down nicely to but i swear the rear is a fractionb higher than stock, upon investigation i realised the springs were out of an 04 wagon and i have an 04 sedan... so im guessing this is the where the extra height has come from?

now my question is, do i get the rear springs reset to come down a bit more or do i just go and buy sedan rears brand new? i like the ride at the moment and from what i understand resetting wont change the current ride?

Gotta agree with Chris here. From personal experience, resetting springs was good for the first few months, then terrible after that. Do it right and invest in proper springs that fit your car instead of resetting non-fitting ones.

with one of my previous cars. i reset the springs and they were good at first but eventually 1 (front pass) sagged and cause one side to sit a little lower..

i was then told this is a normal risk when resetting springs..

my opinion.. best to buy new rear springs..
