if you can't figure out which ones are the fronts and rears, you should seriously consider taking them to a shop for the install

The bigger ones are the rears. Look for writing and put them so you can read it.

I just wanted to make sure, i had a clue about the rear ones being the thicker,wider ones. Since in the box they come with all letters upside down i thought thats how they went. Thanks a lot though for the help i really appreciate it

Make sure you know what you're doing. You can kill yourself with a sprung coil being let loose. It'll hit you in the head and its the big goodnight.

no i know i've done springs several times, and sorry about the dumb Q, i just got excited i guess, the springs have writing on with rear and front labels so no big deal the car is dropped and i couldn't be happier, handles awesome and the drop is really conservative yet enough for an agressive look. I was amazed at how short the travel of the Z shocks is. Thanks for your help and advise guys

Not much of a drop and the rear is 1/8" higher if anything. The wheels are kinda tucked but when i add the spacers and the wheels come out the gap should look smaller
