    Physically I think they may fit, but they have different spring rates and are a bit shorter I thought.

    If you don't know much about cars, and what fits what, just spend the $250 and buy a proper set of springs for your car, and then fit them yourself.

    Than to hope and guess that they will fit.

    Maybe if your first post had more than five words, it may have been a little bit easier for people to help you?

    But you asked the same question again... why would the answers have changed over the course of a year?

    Here... I'll sum it up.

    Will they FIT: Yes
    Will the WORK properly: No
    Will you CARE: Probably not

    Done and dusted
