Thanks!

I thought that was just a road rally trick to avoid damage to the shock/strut body? That's the main difference between the PSS-9 and KW V2. KW is no inverted and has an external resevior in the rear.

I'll have to second everything said about the pss9. I've had them on the car for a couple months now, and they are amazing. I have full dyno's on shocks and springs if anyone is interested i can scan them in.
ride is good, especially here where I live in Pothole city USA (detroit michigan).
I have yet to rub, or have them bottom out on me, which is rare in this area.
On the track they really help the c55, the car is much more responsive and stable, the understeer has also been helped, but the sheer loads it can take now are impressive.
I am running about the same set up for height and thus far they have been fine.
look for my pics and running commentary as we push this setup across country next week (in the cannonball thread)
Sorry for the lo res pics but the full res versions are too big (thanks to fred-voit photo for the use)
