i know for sure cause if you look at the rears on the OEM fit springs, they are MUCH smaller than those. the spings are prob. the size of the perch adjuster.
and no, i dont have past experience with these.

i dont like to recommend coilovers because its all on the user, some like stiff rides, some like comfy rides its all on personal preference. me personaly i like stiff rides.
