Default Nah, go with the Koni setup

If you want some serious motion control, opt for the short piston race shocks.

as far as adj. the height, all coilovers are very similar.

Default both offer ride height adjustability

the Koni's offer adjustability in the rebound on the shocks too though, so you are getting "more" with the Konis.

Default You can post one thread with all your questions in there. You don't win any points for 20 threads

on one topic. A better approach that asking whats best, is telling people what your objectives are. Doesn't that really help define what's *best for you*?
