Default how do adjustable shocks work?

ok i'm thinking of getting some lowering springs and i know with the integra's if you lower the car with springs the front comes out a little higher LOOKS wise than the rear and i've read that some people fix this by setting there shock to a certain setting for the front and it evens it out? how does this work? i think the adjustable shock settings range from 1-4? so you would put the front on 4 and rear on 1? please chim in if you know anything about this thanks guys!

ok i just searched some more and i found out the KONI yellows allow you to adjust ride height by 20mm....but the ones i'm looking to get are the KYB AGX's....will this allow you to do the same?

oh i see what your talking about, my car looks a little higher from the front and it's actually evenly dropped, well if you get adjustable shocks, like koni's, it can be adjusted by the ride of the shocks, stiffness, softness wise, don't think it can be adjusted by height, tein has some that can be adjusted 35 way adjustable, if you set the car to 35, it will be stiff as fuuk, and 1 being soft....get it?, try to get lowering springs that are lower from the front,

hope this helps
