      stock front spring size?

      hey guys, if anyone has their front spring lying around could they measure the size?

      im looking for 3 key dimensions:

      1. overall length of the spring
      2. diameter of the bottom of the spring from centerline of the coil to centerline of the coil
      3. diameter of the top of the spring from centerline of the coil to centerline of the coil

      thanks

      I want to get rid of that extra big front wheel gap and i want to see if my front OEM yaris spring will fit on the aveo strut....so i need to know the aveo front spring size (overall length and then the top and bottom diameter of the spring at the perches....ideally from center to center of the coils)

      im guessing that it WILL fit

      yaris is 14.25" tall outside to outside

      and bottom/top perches are 4" and 4.25" respectively from center to center of the coils

      It may be different compression rate on your Yaris... which will make it handle different.

      i gotta say im not TOO worried about the handling on my otherwise stock yaris w/ 14" snows on it for the summer....

      id just like it a bit lower in the front while maintaining an oem-like ride

      so if someone could measure their stock front spring(s) id really appreciate it
