I ordered the 2.5", but they didn't quite fit. What they give you is a pair of 2.5" plastic spring pad "adapters", but they didn't quite fit the bottom of the h&r spring. The very end of the coil wasn't clearing the adapter. Without the adapters, the spring wasn't getting enough purchase for me to be comfortable either. I ended up cutting out a small portion of the adapter pad plastic to allow the spring to fit.

I also ordered the nylon cones for the top. They gave me 2.5" and they don't fit at all. There isn't a selectable option, but maybe contact them and see if you can get the 2.25" upper cone if you need them. I ended up just reusing the factory rubber padding.
