Cool, thanks for the help, i think i'll be picking up that set today then. Yeah i already had installed the new Bilstein HD's in the car, about a month ago now, its just the spring compatibility issue that i am uncertain with, and Intrax weren't much help either. These springs are like what a lot of people here have pointed out, they definately look dangerous, and from the looks, seem as if they'd be just as at home installed on a German tank as in this car, they're HUGE!. Whereas on a honda, you could literally take their aftermarket springs and squeeze squeeze them down an inch or two just by pushing them on the ground, these guys won't even budge when i put my whole body weight on them. I honestly dont believe those 50 dollar china brand, clamp type spring compressors would have a chance with these springs, nor would i wanna risk life n limb with them either. There's a place here in southern california, Sprewell, that do Euro car suspension mods on a daily basis, so i'll probably be going to them for the install. Only other question in making them work is the spring pad bump numbers that i should use, I noticed the SD's in particular are kinda high in the front, wonder if they used higher spring pads in those cars maybe, gotta figure that one out next.
