The car will be fine to drive though i am not sure about fitting oe ones if you have shortened ones. I cant see there being a problem other than they may wear out quicker on lowered cars. Id chanhe them both as when one goes the other cant be far behind on the wear stakes.

If you are that worried why dont you lift the front coilovers to max and put the standard drop links on? until you order some more.

just an idea
