Coilover question

Is it possible to take stock springs and use them with coilover sleeves. And if so what kind of a ride can I expect?

youd need short stock springs, so youd have to cut yours dont expect miracles

Ohh, thanks. I was thinking about the tom motorsports. But I've tried to do some research on them and everybody says to keep away from things like Tom's, R1's, Arrow's, etc. Hows the ride on the Tom's. Keep in mind I'm gonna have stock shocks, cause I have to pay my University bill. Yikes

oh well if you gonna have stock shocks stay with stock springs or lower slightly... you definately wouldn't want those toms coils on stock shocks
