Ive got the 25mm lowering spings on my zs put the backs on first with the tight wound coils on bottom come to do fronts and they fit on with the tight coils at top so im guessing the backs need to be swapped round

Seems alot lower on front and to high on rear cant be right is there anything other than springs n shocks causing this as they are new

Things will take a while to settle if they're new & they'll drop a bit.

but iirc the front/rear gaps are different on stock - it just looks more obvious when it's lowered.

I think mine were adjusted so that it wasn't "as bad" front to rear. (but I had the front so low I got occasional rubbing on the wheel arch)

That’s the general fitting position. However I have seen them fitted the opposite way on some set ups. What you need is a copy of a fitting guide to confirm or someone who has done this to confirm. I can’t help as my zed is under cover and not been looked at in a long time, plus I have GAZ fitted. I’ll need to check through my build photo archive.

I cant see it making much difference but somthings not right -25mm shouldnt put the front wheels in the arches with the back end not looking much different

Are they for sure on the right end of the car? Something I'd probably do...and just a thought If they are not clearly marked.

If you think maybe the front is too low and the rear too high, as I expect the front will be stiffer with the weight of the engine.....?
