Bought Powell's YYZ V5!
They're used they won't settle anymore.
Glad you like them, my cobalt is so more planted to drive than my ion is. Especially mid corner bumps that unsettle most it just goes over without a fuss.
As for which side to put where, as said doesn't matter but the dead coils (needed on any lowering spring so they don't come out at full expansion) I put up top so they don't sit in dirt at the bottom, even if that's not actually true just what I've heard.

I guess I should update on my measurements the front is still 2 finger gap, the rear tho I removed everything from my trunk only spare and jack left in the trunk and it went from 2 finger gap to 3 finger gap

Anyways, they are amazing springs if you do any sort backroads and want to be able to push it further or weekend autocross events.
life is not always about moar low, i never worry about speed bumps or steep hills. i will agree that powells stuff may be more expensive then other options but once you have it you never feel ripped off

YYZ's are night and day versus any other springs. If you think the TC is well-balanced and handles well, a whole new world opens up with YYZs, specially in combination with Konis and a Powell sway bar. That combination is just made for taking aggressive turns. The car practically drives it self, just point it where you want to go. No joke.

UPDATE! I finally installed YYZ V5 springs today and it is lower. Very close to CM springs but rear are tad lower than CM springs. I gotta get alignment 1st...Right now it's raining. I have to wait for it to stop raining then I'm gonna do alignment. Can't wait to see how it ride and perform!
