they will work, yes. but i would get aftermarket struts. the stock struts wont take kindly to lowering springs.

also you will need spring isolators for front and rear. if you dont it will be metal on metal and you will hear it clunk around. me, i just bought front isolators (it was around 70$ for the front set) then for the rear i just put duct tape (black) around the first coil of the spring on the bottom so it wasnt metal on metal. i read on a few forums that people do it as a cheaper way. and its completely safe and cheaper then spending another say 50$ on the rear. the top of the spring i didnt worry about because the top mount is rubber.

does that make sense?
