A set of strange single adjustables are reasonably priced and I know several people that have had great luck with them! Qa1s and Afcos are are little more money but definetly something you should consider.

Well the people who Ive talked to run their cars on both the street and track. I have heard no complaints. Obviously if you want more adjustabilty for the track and street and have a little more to spend the double adjustable would be the way to go, but for the money the strange singles are a pretty good deal.

No prob! Its actually the shock I have chosen to run until i decide to fork out the cash for a set of AFCOs.
