        Just put the spring in. Take a look at you're rear springs it will all make sense.

            I'm running a tiny GC rear spring and it falls out when I jack the rear of the car up. I'm not Duke's of Hazarding anything though. Nor do I plan to ;)
            Need a part? PM me.

That said, I'll say this once again, I would definitely upgrade the rear springs within the first 3 months of buying the JOM setup. ANY weight in the rear end of your car will cause serious binding of the rear springs. They are very, very soft for rears. The fronts are fantastic and mine are still going strong with 80+ miles daily driving on them to Seattle from Tacoma on some of the worst highway stretches in the country. I'm pretty low as it is so I'm very impressed with the setup.
                So won't I want to get the Vert CoilOver Setup? As it suppose to have stiffer Rear Springs?

                      Cut spring perches. Welded ring.
                      HIGHEST setting on front (Welded to low lol). Lowest setting rear.
                      First time around i put it on its welded lowest setting. The pan was on the floor (literally)

                      About 2 or 3 months now. Still feels like brand new.

                        That looks sick JOM represent. As far as I know they are still waiting for additional e30 sedan/coupe but there are still Vert kits out there. Ill keep you posted.

                          Car looks great! Have any pictures of the welding you had to do? I want to go almost that low and would like to get an idea on how your install went.

                              No I don't thing the spring will pop out. Im not tracking or doing anything extreme with this setup, so it doesn't seem likely.

                                ^^ I love how your sedan sits!! I need to bring my front down some to achieve this height. I'll get right on it.
