Different front lowering springs??????
Ok so Iv had my tokico illumina/spring kit on my car for about a month now and LOVE IT!!! but I was looking at my car from the side the other day and it looks like it KIIIIIIIIINDA sits lower in the back than in the front... Anyone know if this this common for this kit? So now this leads to my main question....Can you change the front springs and leave the back tokico springs....Has anyone done this? How is the ride? and finally what would be a good set-up? Cuz I really DON'T want to change out the whole srping set unless I have to.....

There would be nothing wrong with doing this. Depending on what springs you get the front may be stiffer though. This is very common with a lot of the springs. It might be difficult to find just two springs for sale. I'd look in the classifieds.

I have Tien S-tech fronts and Progress out back.
IMO, why would it be different and not possible/effective on your car? (A32)

^^^^^ I don't think this setup will have a problem, it's cuz I have the full tokico illumina and tokico spring kit so Im thinking the springs are just a tiny bit off. I guess it's not to bad, but you know when you see something wrong and everyone else says it looks fine, it's still bugs the **** out of me cuz I KNOW it's there you know......LOL Does that make sense...I know Im
I hope someone has the same setup as me but with different fronts so maybe I can see what it would look like....

About 9mm of difference. It actually sits more evenly with this set-up than it did with the like combo.

the biggest problem is when you have a big heavy system in your trunk weighing down the back. My car didn't look uneven until I installed my subs. I have eibachs and tokico's and there is a visible difference.
