Lightbulb GE8 Springs on a GD3 - I have Questions?

Do 2009-2013 Fit Rear Springs fit on a 2007-2008 Fit? My rear springs seem to be sagging. I can only find 2009-2013 rear springs for sale. I have buddy who works for Honda and he could not find any available to order.

The sagging is bad enough if I have an adult sit in back seat the car will bottom out on the tires every time we hit a bump. Winter is approaching quickly and I'll be Running 195/65r15 Toyo Observe GSI-5 tires for the season.

I really do not want to lower it, at least not this year.

So does anyone have any idea where to get a set of stock springs? Does anyone know if the GE8 Springs will fit a GD3?

Replacing the Shocks with KYB Excel-G's this weekend, to see if that helps.

If all else fails, you could always be the test dummy for this scenario question for future references.

You aren't wrong. It may come down to that. Or I'll just bite the bullet and buy Coilovers next spring.

if you only want to have stock height short term i would also call up your local junkyards. i bet they would be 40 bucks for the pair.
From what I've read GE springs MAY fit, but they are much softer than GD springs. It would rub the same or worse with GE springs

GE springs are way too soft IMO.

52441-SLN-A02


Is the part number for GD3 rear springs.

I found that in ~15 seconds of googling. They're around $70/ea.
