But..when I go to select make in the spring section and go to oldsmobile and press ok. All the springs that come up are from honda. I emailed them asking if they would fit the same but I want to know if your positive that a honda spring wont match an alero spring.

Intrax springs for the Grand Am and Alero is different. One of them was shorter in the back or something like that. I don't remember which was which. Somebody a couple of years ago posted pics of the grand ams next to the aleros and you could see the difference. They'd still work vise versa though.

If you plan on going with Eibach, there are springs for both the Alero and Ga. Im guessing they are a little different cause it lists a 1.2 and 1.3 inch drop for the Ga, and a 1.4 and 1 inch drop for the Alero. In any case, if a company doesnt have a specific Alero spring set, Ga springs should work fine i think.
