Default Suspension for 05 RSX - hesitant to buy

I'm looking for a good coilover set of the 05 RSX S that I have. I'm having a hard time believeing some of these websites stating that some coilovers fit 02 and up RSX's. Can someone shed some light on me? What do you have? Where did you get it?

I was a civic guy that had tein flex's so some help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Full coilover dampers should work, but springs will not, wound backwords like stated before. I say "should" because I can't say for 100%. I would call the manufacturer of the setup you want, they can answer all your questions.

Any Full coilover kit will work for all years of the rsx 02-06 when the 06 comes out. Mugen ss, tein ss, megan, jic, and so and so forth. Check out clubrsx and search for 05 suspension, and you will see tons of threads like this.
