I bought a new set o' tires yesterday, firestone firehawks 175/70/13, put 'em on my early accord 13"s, makes a hell of a difference in ride quality, the go-kart feeling is almost gone!

My question is this: Will the front civic swaybar fit on the rear without modification to the car?, when you change the front springs to the rear can you change the whole strut, or do you just put the front springs on the rear strut?

No to both questions...but you'd figure that out when you got around to trying it...springs only...but it may be stiffer than you bargain for...if you are going to drive it on the street much.

I did the '1200 front springs in the rear' swap.
Stiff... YES.
Too stiff... NO.

Yeah you guys are lucky in California...here in the freeze/thaw zone, between mother nature and the pirates who are supposed to be fixing the roads...some times it seems like we are driving on the Ho Chi Ming trail.(But you didn't hear it from me)

We pay too, I just have to wonder if some of the money is falling into some of those holes.
