You will need to compare the specs from the vehicle they came from to Moog's 824 or 844, those are the largest springs that you can put on without any consequences. Check compressed length.

You will need to get some new cam bushings as taller springs will throw your alignment out of wack. If they won't work then either of the 2 moogs I listed will raise the front up, or you can always use spacers, but honestly anything short of a suspension lift probably isn't going to work with those tires.
