Default 96-00 Tein S tech springs

Will my 96-00 Tein S-tech springs fit on my friends 92-95 EG OEM struts?

Other than maybe different rates will the springs actually fit his car. i know that the shock mount on the strut is different, but that is not what i am talking about. When I take my OEM/Tein shock combo apart can I swap my Tein S-tech's for his OEM EG springs? Will they fit on the same way (same size)?

From what i understand all springs for civics between the years of '92-'00 are interchangeable.

The springs are not the same. But they should fit.

Model ~ Spring Rate F/R ~ Drop F/R
96-00 ~ 235 / 140 ~ 1.9 / 1.7
92-95 ~ 212 / 140 ~ 1.8 / 1.7

They will fit, they just have a different spring rate.

yup...there stiffer in the front.

S-techs are too soft imo...unless you plan on keeping a stock setup.
