Yep, both will fit fine. As for the coilovers, you really get what you pay for but the Joms/FKs etc are fine for "lows" and "stance" if that's what your after.
Personally, I'd save for a set of BC racing proper coilovers

Those coilovers?? Don't bother they are shite & will pack up in a matter of weeks, & as for the camber plates?? Never tried them in your link as I have a set of eibach/spc fitted (£350+) had them for nearly 6yr's with no problems, but I've heard a few stories of those coilovers working loose after a while & needing to be tightened up,
As said above, you get what you pay for, just for "stance"? Then they'll be fine, looking to go on track?? Save your money & go for the proper stuff I;e gaz coilovers, ground control/eibach/spc adjustable top mounts.

if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

Ah awsome thanks guys yh it would merley b just for stance i probably would end up going for a branded budget coilover lyk fk or joms. How would the top mounts work on a coilover set up like these as it looks lyk u still have to use the original top spring pirch but do u just replace the standard top mounts with the adjustable ones? Another random question if i were to run wide wheels say 9.5j 17s surelu the bottom spring pirch would touch the rear of the rim ??
