Yes, though that is only one FRONT spring.

I'd recommend buying them from someone on here so a lot cheaper than them.

Dude I did this maybe 3 months after I bought the car, it wil ride relatively the same but a little more "planted" my biggest complaint before I did the springs was that I felt like the car would "float" at highway speeds, deffinatly feels better now, nothing like aftermarket stiffness but better. The drop is very little I'd say less then an inch, but it is enough to not look like a jacked up truck lol.

If you can get fe5 struts at the same time you'll be set.
