even if they do fit, which i kinda doubt, the rates will be totally screwed up.

I haven't heard of it, but that would be pretty cool if it was true. But if my memory serves me right, most honda coils are quite a bit smaller in diameter??? I'm not totally sure though.

ALL ground control coilovers and most others use a standard 2.5" ID spring.

Yah,<P>Two members of this site just purchased AIM coil overs... I am still waiting to hear from one of them how it turned out, but the other's were a bit to tall in the front, so AIM is sending him a second set of coils free, that are 2inches lower... They are a hella cheaper too. $119 US. But after shipping to Cdn, it came to just under $300. See "Quality of these coil overs" topic.
