OZ & ES Spring Differences
I just bought a set of Goldline springs because a guy at procarparts told me they would fit. Will they fit? and if Not then how can I make them fit. Thanks.

If they don't fit you'll make them fit back in the box and buy a brand that we've established will work Sorry dude, looks like you're investigating new territory.
good luck, and let us know if they fit and how much you paid, maybe we now have another option...

I hope they fit as well. I love my ES, don't get me wrong. But the suspension options for the ES are nowhere near the options out there for OZ guys. I would LOVE to get myself a set of Eibach springs for my ES... but chances are slim to none from what I read on here

isnt the only difference between the springs like..very minimal? lol i forgot but there's just one part of the suspension that's different and if u swap that part out and put an OZ/LS part in u should be able to fit OZ/LS springs on..sorry to be so sketchy.

i got sent a set of es springs on accident. they are even from top to bottom . then i got my teins for an oz and they got a bigger gap as it comes closer to the middle of the spring. i dont know if this helps or not, but the es springs by no way could fit in the front of my car. (i think the back ones couldve worked)

progress springs list the ES springs are the same as mirage 97-00. never heard any complaints on the boards besides some squeeking so i guess you guys have some options from other companies as well. H & R, Eibach, etc...

i'm just sayin that progress does sell the mirage springs for the ES, so why couldn't it be the same with other companies? i've never tried and i don't have an ES, but if people have bought progress springs for their ES and progress sells mirage springs as springs for the ES, then why couldn't mirage springs from other companies work on the ES? just a simple claim. Road/Race sells them.
www.progressauto.com - check the part numbers.
chances are eibach hasn't tried putting mirage springs on the ES. i'm just going by part numbers. i haven't put any R&D myself.

I might have to give Eibach and similar companies a call to try and ask them myself what's going on. Hopefully I can get some concrete information to post here.
