the Strange front shocks come with a lower spring seat for the the standard 2.5 inch i.d. coil-over springs. you can use the stock upper mount if you use the Strange SPC300 springs or the QA1 springs for stock upper mount. otherwise the Strange shocks are available to be used with a standard 2.5 inch i.d. coil-over spring.

you can get lower spring cups to fit a full sized stock spring for extra $ if you want. But otherwise if your going with the smaller coil designed for those shocks they will come with what is needed to do the job. btw i would go with at least a 16" long spring. I've got 14" on my car and they work but i had to adjust them to the top to get a decent ride height out of them.
