Are adjustable rear shocks worth it??
Are adjustable rear shocks worth it??
I'm looking to improve weight transfer and traction on my Camaro. I've already got Spohn subframe connectors, lower control arms, lca relocation brackets, and an adjustable torque arm. Would getting a set of adjustable rear shocks help with my launch? I would think that getting them and setting them on the softest setting would, but I'm not sure. I don't have the money for the struts yet. What brand should I go with if this is worth it? Thanks in advance.

Softer shocks in the back will make better weight transfer. I think HAL makes a good adjustable one.

I have Competition Engineering #C2700 rear Drag Shocks. They're three way adjustable, 50/50, 40/60, or 30/70. They're only $39.95 each through Summit. I bought them locally for slightly less and they seem to work well.
