they should fit, many TSX owners have installed JDM Tein Flex's, so it makes sense that USDM Teins would fit on the JDM Accord

The SS are great coilovers! They ride awesome and handle great. Plus, the price is good and service (in the USA) is second to none!

sorry for the thread hijack, but it's related to this issue. Will the stock TSX suspension fit in the 2005 USDM Accord EX sedan 4 cyl??? If it does, that means my buddy clubs will also fit... My girlfriend has the USDM accord ex sedan, I'm thinking about putting my tsx suspension to make the handling better

well the cars share a lot of suspension parts, so its possible, but I couldn't say for sure. At worst just try it out, look at the bolt holes first and how it mounts to the knuckle

Tein specs a different kit....I am gunna say no.....Then again, it could be a difference in springs alone. The TSX, 04+ Accord, and 2g/3g Tls are all really similar.

If I remember correctly, Eibach Prokit for the TSX has the same part # to the Accord Sedan 04+, that is another reason why I thought maybe the shocks/struts are also similar...

The only thing I am unsure of is actual shock length.... have some books here to study....

The bare shocks have different part numbers.
