I know my goldlines are yellow. They have GOLDLINE written in black on the coils. I don't know for sure, but I think there is another spring that is yellow too.

ya it should say on the springs.. neuspeed race are yellow too.. have pictures of the drop? i might be able to figure it out by that. what size tires? how much gap? if you ever seen springs/coilovers you should be able to tell the difference. i dont think they make yellow coilovers tho. its most likely goldlines

Yea this is what the neuspeed race front springs look like, the rear are yellow as well. MATTC1 you probably got the Neuspeed Sport, it does say right on the spring what they are.

WTF, Mine are Red, and it is really low man, I bought them used along with the koni's came as a set no problems. I will go jack the car up and see what it says on the springs I never really looked at them. If mine isn't race why the hell does it sit so low? and they are not cut. wow this is weird ****, Maybe I got some special edition race springs haha I have 17"s with my springs and have a maybe 1 finger gap all around is this normal for sport springs?

ok guys, I jacked up the car a bit so I could get a look at the springs and they are RED and it says Race on them. I'm up here in canada so I don't know what the hell is going on with my red race springs, if everyone elses are yellow. I am going to call Neuspeed and see what they say about it. the tires i am running are 215/40/17 with a 1 finger if not less gap around the fenders. It looks like a "race spring" drop to me and the coils weren't cut from what I could see,

So if you do have Race Springs the drop should look exactly the same as mine. My tires are also 215x40x17. Here's the pic

It's all about the angles of the pictures. Here's another one that is the same springs and the same drop but the angle is different. I know that when i put my finger between the fender & tire that my finger is touching both sides & tightly. My rear Camber Kit is made by SPC

Take your rear wheel off and read the part number and brand to us that'll make it easier to tell you what you have.
