Theory is one thing... but there are also people that tried it first wink.gif. I have used GF210s on my car with OEM struts for one year (than upgraded to TEIN coilovers). My friend has them on car for three year hand has no troubles at all!

For reference: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=48069
PM this guy and ask for review if you want: http://www.6gc.net/members/urputus

btw. according to Tanabe guide those springs are designed to be used on OEM shocks wink.gif


i think its hit or miss because iv been on bombed ground controls for about 2 month's and mine are fine
