yes they can fit but dont get them. 1. they are total crap. 2. you will blow out your struts quick. 3. BUY QUALITY SUSPENCHION PRODUCTS!...dont risk cheap parts if something fails you can hurt/kill yourself or someone else.

Expect your car to ride like total crap and be very very very very bouncy w/ ebay coilovers. IF you wanna drop your car...your gonna spend $400+ EASY

okay thanks

the rear isnt looking good man

the rear shock seat does not have a flat end that the sleeve can fit on

i dont even drive yet so the cars in the garage

pics??? i need help with the rear please

Well when you want to put coilovers on the car you need to change the struts out anyways....so it wont matter what the stock ones look like cus you shouldnt uses them.

so you bought the ebay coil overs or you're looking at pictures and the car to see if you think it looks like it will fit?

note that the pictures on ebay may not be exact.

start with the Haynes manual so you know the proper steps for changing out the rear suspension.

next download and review the installation instructions with the parts you're going to buy. if you can't find good instructions - then that should clue you into the risk you are taking with their product . contact the manufacturer to verify fitment - again, if you can't get that info then you are taking a risk and wasting money.

honestly, your best bet is just to buy straight stock replacements. hondapartsdeals.com is a good source for OEM parts.

suspension isn't cheap and it's very important. if you can afford a drop, then go OEM.

its a simple question.

can you put ebay coilover sleeves on stock 91 accord front and rear struts?

just answer it please:confused:confused:

g22cd5 07-13-2010 02:32 PM

yes you can....not a good idea AT ALL...but expect the ebay coilovers to kill your struts in about a week..month tops. Also watch out about thos coilover sleeves they tent to break very easily..once they break your screwed.

mikeellert93 07-14-2010 07:42 PM

well im looking into struts too

i found some kyb gr2s? for like some 150 for all 4??

do you have any pictures or links of someone who has put ebay coilover sleeves on a cb7?

g22cd5 07-14-2010 08:57 PM

KYB Gr2's are OEM replacement only...so they will blow just like your stock ones will.

I’m sure if you searched google you can find some pics.
