    the best thing is to upgrade to koni shocks and cut the springs unless you figure out a way to put in some aftermarket coilover in your hatch

    ^ Yep, that's pretty much it. The problem with trying to put small diameter springs in the front is the strange tophat design, the front spring will wind up sitting in the wrong spot. I don't think there's a problem using coilover sleeves in the rear though. I still think cutting the springs is about the best way to go, unless you're going to completely build your own coilover.
