Springs and spring rates are specific to vehicle type and vehicle equipment in most cases. Most basic cars in general might have springs that will physically fit into another but the spring rate would be wrong. The higher performance a car is, the more significant a spring rate is used to get the car to handle correctly with all of it's components and it can be complex when looking at this problem. Mostly, V6 and V8 car springs are rated different simply because the weight of the engines might be different.

So Reader's Digest version Sam is that you really need to find the specific springs for your car that were designed to be in your car.
