springs

I bought springs and i got them yesterday.. If im correct 94-97 accord will fit our cars right? I got the springs and the front ones are correct but the rear are the same size as the front.. the rear on our cars are bigger than the front. My KYB AGX have the rears with a bigger spring seat.. So the rears should be bigger then right? or how can i make these work when they are the same size as the front.

the rear ones should be taller and a lot more strung out.


look carefully, the closest is a back, the one in the rear is a front

well i was looking further into what all came with it and i found a reciept.. I bought springs for a 94-97 accord which should be right.. What his receipt in the box says is 90-93 accord... could that be the problem i am seeing is that it is for a different style? My reciepts on everything i have says 94-97 so he shipped the wrong ones. Or is there no diff between 90-93 and 94-97?
