I have some, and they didnt come with struts. I'm using 90/10 lakewoods with them, you have to grind a little on the top of the strut for the sleeve to fit and you will need some c/c plate too.

lol 90/10 is a ratio that means "drag strut" lol. the sleeve that goes over the strut is threaded so you get the ride hieght adjustment from the sleeve not the strut.
you could slam your car if you wanted or have it higher then stock...

i'm laughing b/c i dont know exactly what the numbers mean, Lakewood has 70/30 and 90/10 for the front and 50/50 for the back. I haven't ran other struts b/c i just drag race and lakewood is the way to go. If I were to guess maybe a 60/40 or 50/50 would be the "stock" ratio for the front. ratios are associated with travel of the strut i think. If you want drag go 90/10, I've ran them on my street car for 6 years.
