The fronts might be slightly taller.

they are slightly taller.. I wish I took a picture of mine.. in anycase.. use the shock forks for the EG.. nice thing is, the EG shock body is thicker... so less bounce for the ounce!

Eg shocks are longer , and if you plan on keeping your original ride height you will be bottoming out the shock from compensating having a longer shock. Only use it if you want to have a higher ride. trust me i had tokico illuminas and my car was pretty high, and it bottom out alot without even being 1.5" low
