if they are progressive springs. Tight coil section ontop, IE facing mounting area in strut tower.

And Mike’s way works too, I have yet to see a spring with writting not oriented in such way that when you install it the writing is upside down.

Oh and sportlines suck,

The ride quality isnt as bad as ppl say it is, i’m running sportlines with agx struts… The drop looks 10000x better then s-techs and yes you can notice the difference in the drop.
