springs

so i had a set of tein springs for my exwifes focus that i never got around to installing still setting in the garage. well i got to lookin at them and comparing them to ss/sc springs and they are excatly the same. i know this is dumb but if they fit would it hurt anything to install them? i wouldnt think so but i wanted some other opinions first.

Uhhg... I wouldn't trust it... Different spring rates and such might make the car unstable in corners, bumps, or high speeds...

Now for instance you look and cross ref some part numbers, and they are the exact same parts, then by all means go for it...

That's my 2 cents...

a focus is alot lighter than the cobalt.. so the car might just DROP.. haha...

but it could be unstable around corners, might not be strong enough..
