Tokico's and Ground Control help

Well I just bought some ground controls from an other member on this site and went to test fit them on the Blue's I have waiting to get installed and found out that the sleves won't fit the front struts. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a work around or will I need to go buy some new ground controls. Thanks for the help ya'll.

Are the Tokicos so much more different then stocks though? I thought they made GC's for Koni's and a set for the others.

But after searching this site, it seems that GC only makes 2 versions. Of course that could have changed. I also thought that the Blues where just a better performing OEM style strut.

skunk2 coilovers also have the same problem fitting the tokico blues. it seems like koni yellows are the choice of option for us sleeved coilover owners

however, ground control makes two sets of sleeved coilovers for the 01+ civic, one that is meant to go with the OEM struts and another that is meant to go with Koni yellows i believe.

do you have the part number of your ground controls? im guessing maybe you bought the set that is meant to go with OEM struts.
