Would a set of coilover springs from a 91 civic fit a 96 civic?
I am getting a good deal on them but unsure if they will fit.

Thanks in advance.

bump Please anyone!!
Need to know if I should get these or not?

They will not fit.
You're limited to model years 1996 to 2000, inclusive.

These coilovers are the ones that fit over you factory shocks. Are they still different? I saw that skunk has a set for 88-00.

I need coilovers because my car is too low to get into my parking garage. I can either buy taller tires or have autonomy on the ability to change the height of my car.

You sound like the guy that is trying to save money, and will end up spending more in the long run. What are you trying to achieve with coilovers?

I wanted just to lower it. Nothing to drastic.

If they are sleeve over coilovers (fit over factory shocks) ...yes, they will work.

However, it may use a universal spring rate ( usually very high) that is not specific to your car which will make it very harsh and stiff for daily driving or vice versa (too soft).

Car parts such as the coilovers are definitely a nice addition to anyone's ride. Moreover, they are adjustable, so you can lower the car according to your preference.
