Stock springs are just plain black.

Same as mine. Yellow in colour is kings...mine had a tag on them though.

Anyway since we are on the thread on springs. done mind if i hijack it. Is there any amt of mileage before changing them or it can last for a good number of years??

Another hijack...

When the spring height gets changed, does anything need to be done to the car before you drive it? Like wheel alignments, or anything?

not sure if you really need a wheel alignment..but i changed my stock ones over about a month ago with my uncle and haven't done a wheel alignment yet. it handles so much better than stock springs, i was quite suprised. and no dramas with anything

YES wheel align it!!!!!

when you change ride height it will change the toe and possibly camber too which in turn will mess up the toe

GET IT DONE :!:
