Default Rear Shocks, Afco vs Strange

I already have Afco Shocks in the front of my car, and I was thinking to myself that both the strange and afco rear shocks are double adjustable. Price isnt really a concern but if the strange will work just as well as the afco's I will get them

Thanks
Kyle

I'm running the Strange Doubles from Jay. I like them a lot and wouldn't swap them out for anything. AFCOs may be worth the money up front, but the rears are equivalent to Strange's. Good luck.

On boltons and stock LS1 intake I went 11.89 with a 1.60 60'. That was on a 17" ET Street, heavy chrome ZR1s, and no anti roll bar yet. I plan on a deep 11 second pass with low 1.5 60' with my new setup.
