As far as I know they're 1.7 and 2.3,but where did you see that they're 1.5/2.0?

As you can see in the pics posted they really improve the look of the car and will handle pretty well once you have the konis in. It will be a bouncy ride until then;I've been riding on my stock struts since april on sportlines and I wish I had konis now,lol

Like Euric said, it's a very aggressive drop. I highly suggest you DON'T buy them without doing it properly. If your getting such a drop like that, I would suggest you getting Koni Yellow struts & shocks. If you put the springs on right now with the stock struts and shocks, you will bottom out everywhere and have the worse ride of your life. It's not worth replacing and then doing it over again all because you wanted to go to a car show.

Have patience and do it the right way and you won't regret it.

If you are getting Konis in a couple of weeks then why don't you just wait a couple of weeks and put it all in at once. What is the point of paying someone twice to do it, or doing it twice yourself. With that much of a drop, riding on stock struts is DUMB!

I am sure that you are going to put the springs in anyway and ride on stock struts for years to come
