for the money i've spent, i'm happy to say that i think they are the best shocks i could choose. i absolutely love them (except for the adjusting part).

You could easy get 2 more inches out of those coilovers.

haha, yeah i know, i got them adjusted so now the ride height is even, no more rubbing on the fenders... but i still need to fix them. i'm probably going to keep the fenders and get them fixed up at a body shop so i can put my liners back in...
