   The '-35mm' 155lb Faulkners are 250mm free length. I'm pretty sure the shortest free length you can have without the springs unseating is 240mm, so the '-45mm' 155lb Faulkners you have are probably 240 - 245mm length.
   
   Really, you're going to struggle to keep the same ride height and go stiffer without going for coilovers.
   
   As for the ID, if you let Faulkner know they're for a Saxo, they will have the ID to hand.
