I've had D2s. I got given them for nothing. I handed them back after a few weeks.

If they suit your needs, i.e. you're only after ride height and not particularly interested in how your car handles, and going by your wheel/tyre combo, this is most likely the case... then they are perfect.

I found that at anything below standard ride height, they were super stiff, extremely harsh and this was detrimental to handling, especially over undulations in corners.

Thinking about it, they'll probably work perfect for you.. minimal wheel travel will mean that your 9.5" rims and stretched tyres won't chop your guards out too much.
