They are adjustable from the top...giving you freedom to adjust the valving which affects the ride in your car. I would get GABs if they made it for our car....just the best shock/strut period...and easier to adjust than the Konis...once you set the back ones..you'll never change them again because your seat is in the way.

ive always liked the tokico 5 way illuminas...i have em on my civic with the sportline springs...and handling on it is much better...plus since downtown houston's road sucks a$$..i can adjust it for the boaty ride to work.

tho...i dunno if other ppl have noticed, but the eibach sportline springs settle a lot more than after the initial install...so i scrape alot on the ground...for u cl's out there i dunno if id recommend the sportline..because at first it seemed ok..but after a year or two...i started scraping...never heard of any problems with the pro kit tho.

just some more personal expereinces..

I'm pretty happy with my Tokico's 5 way adjustables...I love a stiff ride in the car..Although I've heard that The Koni Yellows are even stiffer than the Tokico's, if you were to put them to the "stiffest" setting.

But overall, I have my Tokico's at the stiffest setting (number 5 setting) and I am very happy with them..you can tell the difference from stock.

The Koni yellow's though..do come highly recommended by everyone.

I would get these too.

Bilstein are also pretty good shocks (at least for racing) but I don't know if they make them for the CLS.
