well the thing is if it rides like shit right now on the stockers then your stock shocks are most likely blown. You do not want to put those coils on stock struts and you especially do not want to put them on blown stock struts.

Just get your mind off the whole idea of sticking them on the stock struts. Its just a major mistake and downright dumb. Just get some KYB AGX's at least for around $300 a set and put the setup on them. You will have a nice height adjustable and adjustable damper setup for cheap. Not the best, definitely not the worst and will be an improvement over stock blown or not.

If you have more money like around $500-600 get some Koni's and build a baller setup. Don't buy into the stupid hype of cheap coilovers made in Taiwan,Korea or China that sell for $500-$700 you will just be getting worse shit than running the Ground Controls with the KYB AGX's.

Make sure your bushigns are in good shape and properly preloaded/clocked else you could bend the shaft, if your going for a baller setup.
