well to be honest with you..... although they arent designed for our suspensions...... accord coilovers will work if you know what your doing. ive built 4 or 5 sets with accord ones.

Coilovers are fun once in a while, but they beat me up pretty bad living with them on a daily basis.
Scot, how long do you think your back would last if your Alero was still your daily driver? Or maybe I'm just a wuss......my spring rates were much lower than yours.

FYI for everyone else:
Scot has 500# springs in front, 300# in back
I used to have 300# in front and 200# in back.

If mine was still my daily driver i wouldn't have my coilovers still on the car. for around town the little i drive it they aren't bad but driving to lansing and other road trips do suck and my back hurts at the end of the trip.

If the seats were better I don't think it would be so bad..
