I don't see why you wouldn't. Coil-overs are usually smaller in size than a regular strut/spring setup. Send XC2 an email, they'll know for sure.

I could see where there might be a problem -- the bottom of the strut mounts pretty close to the wheel, and a coilover setup will be bigger at that point, because it has the added diameter of the spring around the strut.

Calling X2C is probably a good idea. And then go buy yourself a MM coil-over kit instead...
