Tein-S Springs with Coilover sleeves?

I was wondering if i can use these springs:

and put them on some coilover sleeves?

example:

i DON'T have exactly Ground Control sleeves, but some ebay-type sleeves.

thanks!

im thinking it wont make any difference height wise unless you want to raise your car..
because the coilover sleeve springs are way shorter than those.

i was thinking the same. because i'm getting those springs from a friend for dirt cheap, but i don't like the drop. i currently am dropped on some whack ass coilovers and i like my ride height. i just want the teins for the better ride quality.

i know what you mean, i was riding on ebay coilover sleeves forever on its lowest setting and i was bouncing around everywhere. im glad i upgraded.

heres my 2 cents: If you like your stance the way it is and you can handle the poor ride quality then stick with the sleeves. but if you want a better ride then get those springs and rock those, untill you can get some full coilovers.

Yeah. well it's a day to day thing. i commute around 40ish miles a day (not that much compared to most drivers here), but only for school. And the freeway i gotta go on was probably made by drunk construction workers or whoever's job it was to create roads. Sometimes, i don't mind my car flopping around, but other days, i just can't stand it. So my friend offered these from when he had his DC.

I was thinking of doing this + getting some shocks. Koni's or the cheap route for now, Skunk 2 Pros shocks.

And last thing, even with the whack ebay coilovers, if i bought some shocks, would my ride be smoother?

i heard it does make it better, but i never tried it. try looking up information on people who have done it.
i feel the same way with you man, i use to drive everywhere with my car bouncing, i mean i didnt mind i got used to it, but some days i couldn't stand it. haha

I get different reactions every time i ask others.

some friends keep claiming ONLY if the shocks are adjustable, the ride would feel tons better. less flopping around and more OEM + handling.

and then others keep claiming just go OEM.

I want to try both: the Tein-S + Coilover Sleeves + Koni's/Skunk 2's

and the Ebay + Koni/Skunks. but funds are holding me back from trying out both. only 1.

But hey man, thanks for your tips/advice. i appreciate it a lot.

no problem, and i can tell you right now. konis will be great with the sleeve because you can adjust those.
i have a friend that runs them and he love them.

ah, i can tell. just so hard finding cheap konis. And if i can afford the Koni Adjustables, i'd rather go an extra half a mile and buy some full coilovers instead.

just for now, i want something comfortable and cheap. aka Skunk 2's.

but i don't know. maybe i'll deal with the jumping for some more time and save up for some Tein full coilovers instead.
