Vogtland springs

[lowd239]

Over spring break I finally got to put the vogtland springs on my car. They went in much easier than I thought but the rear end seems to be sitting higher than most other cars on the board with Vogtland springs. Also the rear on the passenger side sits a half inch higher. Odd? I thought maybe they sent me the springs for a four cylinder but the box says they are for the six. What do you guys think?

Seems a litte high for some reason

I dunno, are those supposed to be ultra low or what? I think it looks pretty good myself. People say that springsd settle over time. Mine has not gotten even a 1/2" lower in 2 years.

Maybe you should get a bigger subwoofer!

that looks perfect to me. The other people might have had a late model car

I think it could use another 1" drop all around, I'm not sure what the spring rates on those are though.

that would be stupid. hes on 14", if that car was 1" lower, he would be like cup-kit status, maybe even lower...

[sticksdaman]

they seem fine to me can you get any measurements? are all your spring pads in still?

Maybe its just the rear arches fucking with my head

Looks pretty good to me!

Make sure you're measuring from the axle center on both sides, not from the floor.

Looks pretty low. It should settle a bit over the following weeks/month :).

I am suffering this same problem with my Bilstein/Eibach combo. Any chance this could be due to worn trailing arm bushings? I ask because I still haven't solved the problem. I removed the spring pad from the passenger side too. Any ideas would be helpful and sorry for the thread jack.

looks good to me, but i'd prefer lower

I could be the camera angle. In the drivers side pic the camera looks lower, like you're kneeling. In the passengers side pic, the camera looks higher like you're standing. Take a pic of the passengers side kneeling, the same way you did on the drivers side, and compare the two with the same angle.

Yea I measured again and the right rear is roughly a half inch higher. All spring pads are still in. I think your right on the camera angle, it looks like i was standing on the passenger side picture, but the measurements dont lie.

Does anyone else have pictures of vogtlands on a pre-plastic bumpered car?

Also having some problems with noises coming from the front springs rubbing against the spring pads when turning the wheel. Is there a solution for this?

i like that stance. What shocks are you using?
