Default Are kyb agx shocks adjustable as far as ride height or dampening on the car or both?

I want to upgrade the shocks on my car. Looking at the kyb agx's since it seems to be the best buy for the buck and the many good reviews i heard about it. My question to you guys is can I adjust the height of my car with these shocks with aftermarket springs or does it only adjust the softness or stiffness of the shock? This may sound like a dumb question but I dont know exactly what part there referring to when they mean adjustable.....

the agx's are dampening adjustable only. if you wanted ride height adjustability you would have to combine those with a sleeve-type/coilover spring.

you can adjust the perch on yellows, but i dont believe its "infanently" adjustable like coilovers....

agxs are a good match with a 2" or less drop, and for daily driven....though cranking them up to the highest setting makes them pretty stiff (im set at 2 in front, 8 in rear)
