Strut length?

I know that Tok blue and KYB GR2 struts are stock length, but what about koni and AGX?

Are they any shorter than stock length?

Konis are inserts that go in the stock housing, so they are stock length. AGXs are stock length too.

Motivational Engineering makes shortened struts...

This is all very interesting to me. Why would suspension companies (like KYB and Koni) produce high performance struts that are standard length when they will clearly be used with lowering springs? Makes little sense...

On another note, I checked out that site earlier today and looked at prices: is that 200 for each strut or 200 for a pair (front or back)?

Maybe I should just call them, huh...

I have the Motivational shortened fronts and also the rear strut mount piece that does the same for the rear... It definitely makes a difference.

But that includes KONI adjustable inserts which run about $150 each anyway.
