They are (I wanted to do that).

+1 on the DWs and putting DWSs on the family haulers. Best tire for the money EVER (IMO)

Hello King !
do a search in this section for "shocks" There are several posts by GB members on local suppliers.
Pellican lists stock shocks and the prices are "shocking " ;^)
I did some checking on my car and it has Eibach springs all around and original shocks. Good quality as they lasted 130,000 miles !!
Has anyone tried the KONI units ?

When I got new shocks a few years ago (Bilstein HD's) I really wanted Koni Sport (Yellow) adjustable ones, but the rears were no longer available for my '90 C2

How about the adjustable ones, how easy access they've got to the *****? I'm still not planning to do more than one or two track days but sometimes driving around 1500 km on motorways. Which is quite different from these Italian small back roads + urban traffic. Koni is cheaper? Is there anything else worth a thought, KYB maybe?
I had adjustable Konis, but rear ***** are pretty difficult to access. Overall quality is good. Price is excellent, compared to others.
Now I run PSS10s: ride is smooth and firm. Adjusting ***** are easy to access.
Very happy so far.

ciao
