different. the coilover springs have a much higher spring rate. also, the sportlines and many lowering springs have progressive rates, coilover springs have linear spring rates. but eibach does make the springs for the ground control coils. hope that helps.

The springs are also very different in size. Coilover springs tend to be only slightly bigger than a soda can. The two are certainly not interchangable.
