    Personally I would just go and buy new ones...like in the group buy or something. They look pretty old. They have probably sagged a bit as well. Better off spending an extra $50 for some brand new ones in the group buy...

    Also my King Springs have large gaps and then work down to small gaps....instead of the same sized gaps between each coil like those King Springs...Anyone know the difference???

    Ive got second hand springs in my car, saved me a good 130odd bucks, worth it i reckon, dont have to worry about the car gettting any lower than what it is once the springs are in. But each to their own i guess
