Default xa trd springs

ok got a set of trd springs and was wondering for the rear springs there are two sections on them. they are section off by wider coils and close wound coils. now the question on putting them on the car does the closer wounded coils go on the bottom or on top? and what's the diffrence if the wider coils are facing top or bottom?

yea, the stock coils are going to have the same orientation so just match them up.

Just for reference. Close wound coils should always go against the nonmoving part. In this case, the side away fromt the wheels.
