The non XR2 springs will be softer so they would compress more with the
same (near enough) weight of the car.
So the difference when fitted to the car would be less than the
difference uncompressed.

Info so far may help others..
Rear Springs.. std. Fiesta...104mm diameter....307mm length (based on
average of 4 makes)
Rear Springs.. XR2 mk2.......105mm diameter....265mm length (as above)
Front Springs..std. Fiesta...109mm diameter....307mm length (as above)
Front Springs..XR2 mk2.......110mm diameter....285mm length (as above)
XR2 based springs were harder to get info. on, but at least it's a start.

I've recently changed my wheels 15" with 195-50-15 tyres to the
correct set up 14" with 185-55-14, and my 2+2 looks like a Land
Rover.
I was going to change springs anyway, but now have brought this
job forward as not looking as I want.
I understand that the manual states 'Quantum red springs' for
front and Fiesta mk2 1100 springs for rear, however when looking
at lowering springs, most seem to be a standardised Fiesta mk2 set
up , most covering full range excluding XR2 !!!!
Anyone got any experience with lowering springs , any
recommendations would be great .
Car has std. XR2 engine set-up, thanks.
