Here are some options:
All are <b>HEIGHT</b> adjustable on-car.
All that have <b>Damping</b> adjustments (e.g. Compression & Rebound) are adjustable off-car

I never saw the KW's! Only saw it with the Koni shocks.
Those S4's that I have seen with KW's sit lower than the H&R's...even at max height (somewhere around 25.25" max).

Mo and his two buddies...
and me of course, as i can lead without a navigator.
of course only 6 means we go like hell! :-)
Tristan and his Bro Evan just confirmed too.
