sprIng Pads

[threlevenguy]

i was told for a good stance i need 2 spring pads in the back..what do they look like and how / where do i install them? pics any1?

I have two stacked ones in the rear of my car but you have early rear arches , i bet you dont need them. What springs are you going to be running? The pads go on teh bottem of the springs, they sit on these "pads".

[threlevenguy]

IE stage 3 springs

[rede30]

yea those are what i have but you should be fine if your car is an early 325 like what your sig says.

You can always run the setup and see if you want to raise it up a little, thats what i did. It takes just a few min to get new pads in.

how

[asubimmer]

jack up the car

compress the spring

put in the pad

lower the car

[xLibelle]

with IE3's no compressing needed to install pads. (if you let the shock loose)

what is everyone looking for with stance?
Yeah, the rear looks tucked but if youre looking to raise the back to even the "look" its not good imo.
i have dual pads in the rear, worn strut mounts in the front and the car still rides 1" higher in the rear. With a stock setup, more weight to the rear is a plus.

The camber effects of changing ride height in the rear are far greater than the weight distribution effects. I would use the rear ride height to set static camber where I want it, then leave it alone.
