You can, but those are horrible springs for anything besides a dedicated show car.

Strano springs (550f,150r), but make sure you get some well matched shocks like the Koni SAs to get the most out of the setup.

I remember reading about DMS springs. I think the full name is Dynamic Motorsports but I'm not sure. Anyway, every review I read on them for the fbody was great. Chris Frezza from cz28 has them and he said he'll never use any other. I tried to find the website but couldn't. If anyone knows that'd be great.

The ProKits ( Eibachs) are okay , the Sportlines are too low.

I wanted to go with DMS, however I pretty sure they stopped producing them

BMR, Hotchkis, G2, and Strano are all good springs to go with. Do some research in the suspension forum to find out about each as they are different.
