Pics of Perrin Springs on 04 STI Please...

Hi Everyone,

Could someone with these springs please post some pics of their cars...preferably an 04/05 STI...

I am going to purchase either the Perrin or Espelir ASD springs for my 04 STI...I've been searching high and low for pictures of an 04/05 sti with either spring...

I found a nice picture of an 04 STI with the Espelir ASD Spring...but not the Perrin.

Right now, I am running Volk Gram Light 57f-Pro's with a +43 Offset in an 18x8 with Falken 225x40x18 st-115's...

The wheels line up nicely with the outer edge of my wheel wells...trying to get rid of the unsightly gap and increasing the performance using the stock 04 STI Struts...without rendering my car useless for day to day driving (my daily driver)...any feedback on either springs would be greatly appreciated...I thought about the GT Springs but I don't think they lower the front enough...

Thanks in advance

Brent

I've gathered some pictures...

Which ones do you want to see?

I decided on the Espelir ASD Springs...the Perrin dropped it a little too much for me...my sti is an everyday driver...

I'll get adjustable coil-overs in the future to get my perfect heighth...

My springs are supposedly on their way...hope to get them soon. As soon as I get pictures, I will post them..

Haven't gotten them yet...

They are still in the mail...ordered them from World One in Seattle...together with the rear Perrin Swaybar and Perrin Endlinks...should do the trick for me...

I will post pics as soon as I get them installed...

What year is your car? The springs drop different amounts for different years...you really have to see the drop of your model year...I may have pics so let me know and I will post it up...probably tomorrow though...

Here is an 02/03 and an 04 with Perrins springs I found on I-Club...

I have an 05 STI. People are saying I should swap out my struts for better ones since the Perrin Springs drop it so low. So I might just wait and get my coilovers..
