Default Those who run Competition Engineering's drag shocks

Next summer I plan to upgrade the shocks on my 94 z28. My suspension is pretty much aftermarket except the stock shocks. I'm running 15x3.5" prostars up front full time on my weekend-only street car. My question is I wanted to run the QA1 12 way adjustiable shocks up front with a 300lb spring and in the rears I wanted to run the Competition Engineering's 3 way adjustable drag shocks set at 50/50. Are these shocks to rough for the street. I mean will I feel every single bump in the road?? Like I said the car is basically driven only on the weekends. I removed the front sway bar so I really dont care about handling around corners and stuff like that. I was going to put QA1 all way around but if I can save some money buy putting the comps in the rear that would be awesome. Just wanted to know if they will be okay for the street. Also should I stick with a 300lb spring or go with a 275lb. - Mike

Are they still okay for the street. Also is the 50/50 setting the best out of the 3 for the streets?

yes, they are fine for the street. 50/50 works fine and plenty tight for the track
