Icon6 99 Civic struts

Hello there looking for some help since i am new to the Honda sence. I have a 99 civic sedan and I was given these looks like stock struts with a sleeve attached and a spring and was told they were for my car. After researching the part number on the shock they are for and integra but anyways I have already ordered Ebachi sportline springs and KYB struts and was going to just run that set up or do you guys think I should use the sleeve and spring and mount to my new KYB struts. I use it only as my daily driver to work 90 miles each way all freeway but I like to have some fun and sometimes take up some mountain roads. Please let me know your suggestions. Does anyone know what kind of springs these are?

It would be difficult to say keep the coilovers without knowing what the brand and spring rates are.

Those look to be random sleeves probably bought on eBay....and stock shocks. Meh. Sell them locally. You may get a few bucks.

If you can, I'd cancel those sportlines and swap them for prokits if you absolutely want springs and shocks for some crazy reason. I used to commute about 80-100 miles a day in my civic. Sportlines ride so badly. They're WAY too low and soft for shocks like KYB replacements.

Also FYI...Tein makes a great coilover for that car for like $500 that rides fantastic. I can't really see many (any?) good reasons for buying unmatched springs and shocks when a systemized coilover option exists.
