They don't really make shorter struts. They make lowering springs.

Also you don't need new struts for a 1.5" drop. That is hardly anything.

you're correct it isn't much . .I I'm concerned about the rear spring coming out while driving over bumpy roads I have a Friend who has sn 08 sport. That had a rear spring come out ...I want to upgrade from OE ,front & rear ..Figured I would see if anything set for a drop was out there .
thanks for the advice

At 1.5" I believe you could use Honda CRZ oem/aftermarket struts/shocks. I'll try to dig up that thread again
Edit: fortunately I dug it up for someone recently!
here's the thread link for the crz suspension swap. It's a 1.5" drop.
