you wont have any trouble getting them to fit, whether the car sits too high or not is another matter.

worst outcome is you need to buy either lower springs or coilovers.

Hi mate what ET are they on yours and have you got a pic of your car. I'm wanting to do the same with as much concave as I can get but worried about ordering the wrong size
