made for different types of vehicle.
our cars have shocks.


When i installed Eibach pro kit for a '11 mustang v6.....the springs looked like the 1st picture.
I believe the wider set is for the rear.

we dont know.
you need to purchase springs that are made for the specific type of car that you're installing.

tien makes springs for all types of vehicles. From civis to mustangs to anything in between. each of these vehicles have different kinds of suspensions....some use shocks, some use struts.

if the 2nd set is made for the TL, which the TL uses shocks all around, then yes. it will fit.

you wouldnt install an xbox360 hard drive into a ps3, would you?
purchase the right item for the correct application.

^obviously, they're not for the TL.

throw up the source on where you got these pictures from.

I can also refer you to our vendors that can sell you the correct springs for the TL.

Dont mind the picture, as its a generic picture....and I'm assuming thats what happened to you..

http://store.excelerateperformance.c...0/i-35062.aspx
again, there is a generic picture posted.

I would advise you to post up the links next time, instead of posting pictures.
