they suck ass....well not entirely..lol, I have them installed on my woo....very very harsh ride even on softest setting....and cant adjust with knob as shown in pic...shock needs to be taken out the car in order to adjust as it needs to be fully compressed then turned by clicks....not worth the money....if I would have known i would have stayed with my kybs, or maybe gotten the bilstein ones instead

It's a very nice sized drop because it's not enough to screw up the camber yet it lowers it to a nice mean lookin stance.
I'm able to fit my 205/40/17s under without any scrapping yet, however I don't have my system installed yet.
I am using KYBs and they are pretty good. Well worth the money and only half the price of the Koni's. The Koni's are self-adjusting. There is no knob on the ones they made for the Lanos. Hope this helps.
