Default Is Bilstein shocks from Supremepowerparts.com same as Awe's Bilstein?
The Supremepower shocks' price is much cheaper than Awe's. Is it because of quality difference??

Default They groove little notches into the shocks so you can raise and lower the spring height
This is pretty common, seems like most places will notch them for you for around $20 bucks or so.

Default thats not what they were referring to....
AWE offers the ability to have the shock bodies grooved which will allow you to adjust height ( off the car ).
