For those who know their spring pad number

I've been trying to find out what spring pad I have on my car, but running into dead ends everywhere. Can those of you with a 500 and know their DOT spring pad number please post them(along with the options on your car)? I want to see if its the same with all 500s, which I highly doubt. Thanks.

If I remember correctly, I think I had DOT 3 pads originally.

I think they should all be the same. There are no spring pads in the front. The Rear should be a 3 if i remember correctly.

i was talking to my service person the other day and she transferred me to the parts department person. He told me that US clks usually have the 3 or 4 spring pad i think if i remember correctly.

Thanks guys. If they are indeed a 3, would a 4 give a noticable raise? Any other options to raise the back? Thanks.

um...why do you want to raise your car? and i dont think it makes that big of a difference between 3 and 4, but of course there will be a little raise

I lowered the car with H&R springs, but the back is a bit too low for me. Hopefully a spring pad can solve the problem.

Are you sure the 320's have a dot2 in the back?
