    Just call up Ground-control.com and see if they will sell you the rears(coilover conversion). I am not big fan of IE, and the fact they go over the rear shocks. GC sells a setup for that and they are made for being on the rear.

      Well IE is most certainly a good company, but do you know what you are doing and what it requires to run a true rear coilover setup for our cars?
      It's not slap on and go.
      Reinforcement is needed and rates are completely different from what you'll see on the board.

          Call them, they can hook you up the right way. ak- said it very well, those IE rear coils will not be a smart idea if you just slap them on without a good bit of fab work to reinforce them.

          Look at the GC rear coils:
