Default Daily Driving/Autocross shocks??

I bought my sportline springs already and now I'm looking for shocks to go with it.

I know Koni yellow's are the best and all but I heard that they are too stiff for daily driving. I want something I can stiffen up for autocross and then soften for the street. Any suggestions? Are Tokico Illuminas any good?

Thanks

Koni yellows are very adjustable. You should not have any problem softening them up for street use and then stifening them up for an autocross.

I like my kyb agx, there a little cheaper than the koni yellows, but can't handle as high of spring rates. Both are adjustable and would work well for a daily driven, autoXer, and even for HPDEs.
