Yeah, they're D2's. I've heard good things about them and since them and KW are the only other ones to make anything for our cars these were cheaper and a better option for where I was at.
There is currently a D2 setup for these cars, you buy the setup for the Volvo 850 since the suspension geometry is the same 850 to the s70/v70/c70. The only thing I did hear was that they might be ceasing production of these coilovers since there aren't enough people buying them to make it profitable for them to continue to make these... we'll see what happens but I'm glad I got them while they were still available.
Were you able to use the endlinks that came with them?
Yeah. I wasn't able to use them at the smallest setting however. I'm also not sure if its just mine, but my links collide with the tie rod slightly on the driver's side. I may try going back to a stock length link and see if that helps.
rattle can colormatched the rear bumper since it was super scuffed up.
thats with the rear coilovers on and still about one more finger worth of threads to go down and then I could take out the adjusters and go a bittt lower too.
I got the fronts on... unfortunately, the tires I bought are 215/50 so I can't lower it as much as easily... hoping to acquire some smaller rubber sometime soon.
Coilovers certainly close the fender gap, but these cars can't seem to really get low. As big a fan as I am of static cars, it'd be interesting to see one bagged.
Whatever the case, looks like a cool build.

Yeah, this suspension can go a LOT lower in the front, but right now I'm limited by the tires size I have and the temporarily small budget (inbetween switching jobs).
Mattphi on here has a bagged S70, still not too many official pictures but I know he's close to completion.
It's pretty decent right now, but it will definitely be going lower in the near future.
