E85 MSport rear springs

Hi all, I'm replacing springs on my facelifted E85 2.0i Sport. I've bought Suplex (MSport equivalents?) springs for my model for the fronts.

Could someone advise whether rear springs from a 2.5si Sport would be compatible with my car?

I've tried looking on real OEM but they don't seem to give part numbers for the springs for some reason. Could someone help?

Thanks in advance
Rick
 
Hi Dhobbs,
Yes I have. As per the above, I've got Suplex front springs (part no. 06247) which are the correct MSport equivalents for my 2.0i.

For the rear springs - I've been offered OEM ones from a 2.5si Sport with very little use. Hence being on a budget, I'm considering those but just wanted to be sure they will be correct for my car. I already have random aftermarket springs on, thanks to previous owner which make the car sit ridiculously high.
The suplex rears (as above) seem to have a slightly different part no (06229, 06230, 06231) - depending on with options or without. I'm not sure what options this means or why it would make a difference.

Regards
Rick
 
Hi Rick
I would guess that the 2.5si springs may be hard for your 2.0 simply based on the fact the 2.5si is a heavier car. I'm also not sure if the springs are the same shape/fitment 🤷‍♂️
Have you looked on eBay for the springs as they're not that expensive.
