I see tons of ready strut kits for the '99 V70 X/C but only for those cars not running Nivo's. What would be the detriment to the front end if one were to swap the Nivo spec'ed ones with the 'regular' ones?
Just wondering...

Front ends are all the same - just some slightly different springs for ride quality differences. Just make sure it's for a P80 XC and you should be all set.
