Best strut combo with Tein S. Tech

I ordered some Tein S. Tech springs for my 04 WRX but cant find any struts to go with them. I was going to get KYB AGX but they dont offer them for the 04s. Can someone please help me??? Thanks!

KYB AGXs fit 02-04 WRXs. It's the stock rear tophats that are different in the MY02-03 WRX vs the MY04 WRX.

The Teins will lower my car some 2"..I read somewhere the AGXs are not effective with springs lower than 1.5". What are my options for struts??? Thanx.

At this point you don't really have any. That's why most knowledgable folks on the boards tell you not to lower more than 1.5". You could get custom built housings with Koni inserts if you really wanted to, but you could sell the springs and get a set of Tein Flex for what that would cost.
