    What Vogtland spring kit did you get? Tell us the Part #.

    They have two kits --- "Street" and "Club Spec" --- the Club Spec springs are stiffer than the Street springs, and have a higher ride height than the Street springs.

    They are KYBs. Decent shocks for the price. Not too harsh but a definite improvement over the stock shocks.

    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 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.

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

    Looks pretty good to me!

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

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

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

    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!
