myself along with most others on here will advise that you dont get coil sleeves.

But if you are stuck on getting sleeves, there probably wont be any for sale on here, you are better getting them off of ebay, they are fairly cheap as is

+1, If you want to go low. Do it right and get the full body coilover. It'll be a much better ride. If you want sleeves then you'll need to also upgrade your shocks because even if you leave the stock shocks. It'll blow in less than a year. Lol. So sleeves + shocks will be just shy by 100-200 cheaper than full body coilovers soooo......might as well spend that extra buck on something that's WAY better. Just a fyi though. I've ridden in them cheap coilover sleeve method in them Hondas and man. That car was bouncing up and down like no tomorrow. Lol.

Id say they would blow in a matter of months, depending how lor you go.
My stock struts blew on Tien s techs in less than 4, and its a mild drop.

I third the statement on spending the money and getting a full bodied coilover as oppose to a cheap sleeve/strut combo.
