Yup - shocks and springs are all interchangeable 4th and 5th gen.

Which ones are you looking at?

I wouldn't do that. Sleeves are a bad idea..

Just read the thread,

Thanks guys, i will give these a miss then

No wonder they're so cheap,

I will just prob go for 30mm lowering springs instead

Thanks for the advice
